Invitation to Participate: Negotiation Behaviour of Academic Librarians and Archivists

Invitation to Participate: Negotiation Behaviour of Academic Librarians and Archivists

June 4, 2019

Did you negotiate your last job offer? Why or why not?

In order to learn more about Canadian academic librarians and archivists’ negotiation behaviours, we are conducting a survey that aims at determining and understanding:

  • If and how Canadian academic librarians and archivists negotiate
  • How this relates to the larger body of negotiation research and what unique challenges Canadian academic librarians and archivists face
  • Differences in negotiation behaviour and needs of negotiators within Canadian librarianship

The survey will ask you specifically about your last professional job offer in a library or archives setting, how previous experience or lack of experience played a role, and how other factors related to your decision to negotiate or not.

The estimated time to complete the survey is 5 – 10 minutes. We would appreciate your response by June 30th, 2019.

The survey can be accessed here. For additional information please see the attached letter of introduction and informed consent form.

If you have questions or comments please contact Paula Cardozo (paula.cardozo@uleth.ca) or Emma Scott (emma.black@uleth.ca).

Thank you and we appreciate your participation,
