IMLS Redesign Survey - External

Welcome to the IMLS Website Redesign Survey

The Institute of Museum and Library Services is redesigning its website. We want to develop a site that provides a great user experience and your opinion is important to us. We want to know more about what you want to find and do on the site so that we can develop the best look, feel and functionality to meet your needs. Thank you for taking the time to participate in this survey.

Thank you for participating in our short survey to gather information regarding the website redesign project. The primary objective is to understand who the users are on the site and the desired action they should take. Additionally, we would like feedback regarding the overall look and feel and functionality to help guide the design process.

Sincere thanks in advance for your input.

The OMB control number for this study is 3137-0081 and expires on 07/31/2017. IMLS may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, the information collection unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
