Written By Deborah Mason

Speakers: Lisa Snook, Chair, ARA Survey Group and Jonathan Gordon, Schaffer and Co.

This is a recording of the webinar that was held online on Friday 19th September 2025

Between October and December this year users of UK and Irish archives will once more be asked for their views on the services we deliver, to tell us about themselves and to make suggestions on service improvement.  This is a fantastic opportunity for services to discover who our users are, and what they really think!

Join members of the ARA Survey Group, plus Jonathan Gordon from Schaffer and Co (who run the survey) to find out more.  We’ll present information about the survey, highlight case studies and examples of how the survey data has been used by participating services to advocate for or improve the service and there will be an opportunity to ask questions.
