Dear Colleagues,

The Hospital Libraries Section Standards Committee is seeking
information and data concerning the use of the MLA Standards for
Hospital Libraries. This information will help us determine how the
Standards are being used by hospital librarians and other related
parties.  We are interested in any positive and/or negative scenarios in
which the Standards were used to support increased services, space or
staff changes in your library or to combat an attempt to diminish any
level of library services.  It is important to complete the survey even
if you have never used the Standards in any fashion. Please complete the
survey that is located on Survey Monkey.  The link is:

Thank you.
