ACTION NEEDED: VIVO Governance Survey

[Julia Trimmer]

Dear VIVO community members,

 

The VIVO Project needs your help! Please respond to this survey to tell us how VIVO can best serve the needs of the community:

 

                    VIVO governance survey

 

The VIVO community is united in a common goal: to enable the discovery, use, and reuse of information about researchers and academic research. But we can’t do it without you.

 

In March 2018, the VIVO Steering and Leadership Groups met to talk about the future of VIVO. We formed the Governance and Organization planning group to help ensure that VIVO can grow and evolve in a way that serves the wider community. 

 

The results of this survey will inform the work of the Governance and Organization group for the coming months. There are 24 questions that will take about 15 minutes to complete. 

 

For each completed survey, one of VIVO’s partners will donate $5 (up to a maximum of $500) to GiveDirectly – a wonderful organization that you should check out if you don’t already know their work.

 

We’d like to get multiple responses from each institution as well as prospective members and friends of VIVO. Please forward this to colleagues who may not have received it. 

 

You can participate in the survey here:

Thanks again for helping VIVO and donating to GiveDirectly!

 

Best wishes,

 

Julia Trimmer

Chair, VIVO Leadership Group
