  • 1.  Courier Practices Survey

    Posted 02-22-2024 03:31 PM

    Hi everyone,

    If you have had experience either working as a courier or managing couriers, please consider completing our survey on Courier Practices. This survey is meant to update and build upon data on courier practices originally gathered by the American Institute for Conservation during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data will be used to examine how attitudes towards and methods of alternative courier options have continued to develop post-lockdown, and identify areas for further development and resource-building. Our intention is for the initial results to be shared at the Towards Art In Transit 2.0 symposium at AIC's 2024 Annual Meeting in Salt Lake City. Please feel free to share the survey with your colleagues.

    This survey should take you approximately 10-15 minutes to complete.

    Please reach out with any questions to samantha@artsolutionslab.com or lauren@flyartsinitiative.com  

    Thank you,

    Samantha Springer and Lauren Fly

    I love this and will go take the survey now. Would you be willing to share your results here as well, for those who can't make the symposium? Pretty please?!

    Hi Matthew,

    Thank you for the response and enthusiasm!  I'm sure we'd be happy to share the results beyond presenting them at the Art in Transit 2.0 symposium, I'll talk with my co-author more specifically about format and platform.  Will make sure to update this thread with the relevant information once we have a clear idea of how best to share.

    All best,

    Lauren

    Hi all,

    A quick note to encourage those who haven't to please consider completing our survey on Courier Practices by 20 March 2024.  We will then begin processing the information for presentation at Towards Art in Transit 2.0 on 21 May 2024.

    Thank you,
