2025 WSDLC Annual Membership Survey Results Report
The annual membership survey ran from March 3rd through March 21st, and we received wonderful feedback from everyone who responded.
You can find the results of this year’s membership survey in the report linked here. The WSDLC Project Managers will also be providing a quick overview of the results during the Annual Membership Meeting later this week (more details below), and sharing ways in which this year’s survey results will be shaping the WSDLC as a whole.
As a reminder, this survey serves as an opportunity for member schools and districts to provide valuable feedback to the WSDLC Board and Project Managers: what do you love about the WSDLC and Sora; how is your school/district using the collections; do you have any pain points; and what kinds of updates would you like to see from Sora and the WSDLC in the future.
