UC Policy Library Survey Summary Report
Introduction
The University of Canterbury Policy Library is a single point of access for all of the policies and procedures that have been developed and approved at an institutional level. A policy or procedure that is lodged in the Policy Library is both the official and most recent version of that document. The documents are reviewed regularly.
This is the first time that we have conducted a survey for the UC Policy Library since its inception in April 2004. The aim of the survey is to know first hand how we can enhance the functionality of the Policy Library website and improve the support we provide for users.
Executive Summary - 2007 Policy Library Survey Report (PDF, 49KB)
The data is based on analysis of the responses to the 2007 Policy Library Survey which was collected by a web-based survey from August 24 through to September 17, 2007. Responses were not anonymous, although a small percentage retained autonomy. There were 157 responses received and utilised for this report.
The survey presents information concerning University awareness of the Policy Library, its use across the wider community and general questions relating to the functionality and capability of the UC Policy Library. The 2007 survey analysis will provide the foundation for enhancements moving forward. Future surveys will be reviewed by comparison to the 2007 survey results to ascertain the effectiveness of the enhancements made to the UCPL.
