heritage institutions and academic organizations promote their unique resources beyond simply placing content in an online repository for users to discover. Types of outreach may include integration of digital collections into teaching and instruction activities,
external partnerships, digital scholarship collaborations, social media promotion, and more. <b>The link to the Digital Library Outreach and Instruction Survey and more background is available on this website (<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://exhibits.lib.utah.edu/s/digliboutreach/page/survey__;!!DZ3fjg!_359CEbgJJLhZp1cCz3cisPEkVTFIBq6JFtLqCNzC30pUqRezU5Wo-d0asG5qytu_AVSJcy9mikJA_vdt429VKN_VSA$">https://exhibits.lib.utah.edu/s/digliboutreach/page/survey</a></b></span><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt">)<span style="color:#333333">.</span></span></b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#333333"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

who have engaged in digital library and digital scholarship projects with a variety of audiences both regionally and nationally. Results of this study may be published in professional publications and presentations, including a forthcoming monograph on the
topic to be published by ALA Publishing. The survey should take roughly 10-15 minutes to complete. A PDF of the survey is available for preview on the website linked above. <b>The survey will be open until Friday, November 18, 2022.</b><o:p></o:p></span></p>
