Thank you so much for joining over 12,000 public libraries, state libraries, military libraries, prison libraries, bookmobiles and other library locations to bring solar science to your community! This survey is meant to capture information about your participation and preparation for the 2024 April ECLIPSE ONLY. If you have already responded to the 2023 October eclipse survey, please do not duplicate numbers and totals. If you did not respond to that survey but completed events, please include those totals in this survey.
Our funders (Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and NASA) would love to hear about the amazing and innovative programs you've created, and partnerships you may have formed. As a reminder, completion of this survey was a condition of receiving the glasses or education kits, so please help us by providing your valuable response!
