Scholarly Communications Survey Results

In January – February 2021 the SCWG conducted a survey of COPPUL members and affiliate members to gain a better understanding of the scholarly communications landscape in Western Canada and inform COPPUL support for related activities and initiatives.

A report summarizing survey results has now been posted to the Resources section of this site alongside results from a prior 2012 survey.
