Online survey: Fachinformationsdienst Linguistik

After 60 years of funding "special subject collections" (Sondersammelgebiete SSG) at university libraries, the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG) terminates this program. – This decision includes the supply of linguistic literature.

As successors to these former called SSG the DFG plans to establish "subject information services" (Fachinformationsdienste FID). These FID should explicitly be oriented towards the current needs of the scientists.

Therefore this survey addresses to all linguists and language scientists in Germany. The purpose is to identify their wishes and needs for scientific information (supply). The results of the survey will be used for an application at the DFG for funding a "FID linguistics".
