Survey for Library Evaluation

I am hoping to survey students and teachers about how they use and perceive the library. I want to use the results to improve my program and for advocacy reasons. Has anyone done a user survey? Any advice? Sample questions would be very useful!

I have a number of surveys in the Tools section of "What Gets Measured, Gets Done" here: http://www.doug-johnson.com/wgm

Feel free to modify and use what you can.

All the best,

Doug's web page is very helpful. I have done similar surveys in the past. I have also run focus groups, asking similar questions. Although I have run blogs on other subjects, they should work as a means of getting feedback on usage and attitudes.
Good luck,
