Overview

Every two years, SMU Libraries conduct a comprehensive survey in which faculty, students and staff have the opportunity to rate various aspects of SMU library's services. The survey provides SMU libraries with input to help enhance existing services and to anticipate emerging needs of SMU faculty, students and staff. The latest survey is currently on going and will be ended by 17th February 2020.

The 2018 Survey Results can be found here and the full report is available by following this link. The past reports are mainly made-up of pages of tables, which are very difficult to comprehend. In view of this, your task is to apply appropriate data visualisation to transform these tables into visual representation that allow SMU libraries to gain useful insights.
