Help us develop an understanding of measurements in use. We'll synthesize what's being measured (or not) in a white paper.<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;

From these data, we will also make recommendations, for example, for potential metrics to include in future grant proposals, and a vision for the future of collection metrics (for objects, processes, equipment, space, and staff). The survey should take about
10 minutes to complete. </span>
