Let us know how we can improve our services

Thank you to all who completed the Insync library user survey earlier this year:

http://www.nmit.edu.au/news/librarians-lauded-for-student-satisfaction

The survey lets us know the issues that are important to you. We use the survey results to improve and expand our services at our campus libraries and online.

Suggestions and ideas are welcome. Please email NMITLibrary@nmit.edu.au or contact your library staff member.
