Survey on Involvement in Fan Culture

Hi! :)

One of my best girlfriends is a high school librarian in Massachusetts. She sent me a link she received from a librarian listserv to a survey that’s currently being conducted with a request to share it with my friends who are involved in fan culture - reading or writing fic, creating or watching fan vids/gifs/screencaps, creating or listening to fan playlists, attending fan culture conventions…many, many different facets of fandom culture.

It is geared at three different groups: adults 18 and over, youths from age 13-18, and librarians (and those who fit into more than one category are encouraged to take it twice, as there are different questions depending on which category you select - for instance, my librarian friend took it as a librarian, then went back and retook it as an adult age 18+).

I have taken it and can confirm that it isn’t one of the articles that is aiming to capitalize on the “mommy porn” brouhaha. Would you please take a few minutes to complete the survey, and share it with your friends in any and all fandoms?
