Abbott, Carol And Others College Libraries Comparative Analysis Data Collection Library Research Library Surveys Maps Questionnaires Special Libraries Use Studies User Satisfaction (Information) Ninety-one randomly selected users of the University of Oregon map library were surveyed in a term project to determine user characteristics and opinions, and results were compared with a 1972 survey. Data were collected on user status, fields of study, reasons for use, frequency and time of use, type of materials used, and satisfaction with hours, materials, facilities, location of materials, and staff assistance. The results indicated: (1) a significant drop in use of the library by faculty and graduate students; (2) increased use by undergraduates; (3) increased use by people in architecture/urban planning fields; (4) decrease in overall frequency of use; and (5) continued satisfaction with staff assistance. The questionnaire, data tabulations, and a bibliography are appended. (KP)
