New User Questionnaire

We ask you to help us by completing the brief anonymous questionnaire below. Information from these questionnaires tells us more about the various users of A2A, and what experience they already have with archives. This information helps us to understand our users' needs. It enables us to meet those needs by making the A2A database as useful as possible. It also allows us to plan future phases of the A2A programme and additions to the A2A database to take account of those needs.

We do not track the source of your input in any way.
