contents Library Survey Summary, University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Lyons, William Phillips, Linda College Faculty College Libraries Delivery Systems Higher Education Information Sources Librarians Library Collections Library Facilities Library Planning Library Research Library Services Opinions Questionnaires Surveys Teacher Attitudes Teaching Assistants A comprehensive survey of the faculty members and graduate teaching assistants at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK), was conducted in April 1987 with a response rate of over 75% (N=1,275). The purpose of the questionnaire--a product of discussions with the Faculty Senate Library Committee and library and campus administrators--was to elicit the opinions of the respondents on the overall quality of the library system, as well as the quality of the collection, facilities, and various services provided by the library staff. The respondents' preferences for a range of actual or desired library policies were also queried, and various background measures were obtained for each respondent to facilitate comparison of the results across colleges and divisions and by faculty rank. The findings on each point for which an opinion was elicited on the questionnaire are summarized in 96 tables. These data will be used for library planning and collection development, and written comments from the questionnaires will be circulated among librarians for specific action on the suggestions given. It was recommended that a similar survey of student opinion be conducted in the near future. Appended are the survey instrument, a summary of the written comments, and a summary of the demographic data. (CGD)
