The Expert Group on Archive Buildings and Environments of the International Council on Archives (ICA) requests that you complete an online survey to enable the group to speak with more authority on building issues within the membership of ICA. The data results will be anonymous, but the data will enable the group to develop a range of activities to service and advise ICA members on best practice, ensure better standards of care for archival collections, and so embed preservation as a key goal across the membership.
Additionally, the group will be presenting the outline data and findings at the ICA conference in Reykjavik, Iceland, in September of this year.
The survey is available via the Survey Monkey online database system; members will need to follow the link below and answer the questions (online and on-screen) – the database will collect all responses – no other action is required of those completing the questionnaire. Survey monkey:

The completion date for the survey is Friday, August 21st, 2015.
The Expert Group hopes that you will be able to support this initiative and thanks you for your time in completing the survey.
