Invitation to participate in the 2025 International Library Automation Perceptions Survey
The 2025 edition of the International Library Automation Perceptions Survey is now open. For nearly two decades (since 2007), this annual study conducted through Library Technology Guides<https://librarytechnology.org/> has documented how libraries around the world view the systems they rely on to manage their collections and serve their communities. Your participation is vital in helping the profession understand how well current automation systems and discovery services meet real-world needs. We are especially interested in receiving responses from libraries in India since they are generally unrepresented in international studies on library automation. Please respond for your library and distribute this invitation thorough any other channels that can reach librarians throughout the country. Your efforts will help bring recognition and awareness of the important efforts made to automate the academic, public, school, and special libraries in India. Why your response matters: * Amplify your library’s voice: Your input helps shape an objective picture of vendor performance, product quality, and support satisfaction. * Guide future decisions: The published results inform libraries considering migrations understand the performance of both proprietary and open source solutions. * Provide constructive feedback: Vendors use the findings to improve their products and services. Your candid insights make a difference. While the numeric ratings provide valuable benchmarking data, the narrative comments also provide essential perspectives. All comments are published in anonymized form to protect individual and institutional identities. If you have participated in past years, please consider responding again this year. Your library’s continued input helps identify year-to-year trends in satisfaction and product development.
