Library and information professionals are being asked to complete a survey partly funded by the US Institute of Museum and Library Services on Open Educational Resources on Algorithmic Literacy (grant number RE-254893-OLS-2). "The survey will ask about your questions, interests, and experiences supporting algorithmic literacy. We define algorithmic literacy as awareness and understanding of the role algorithms and computation processing plays in information access and literacy, in your library. The purpose of this research study is to explore how academic and public libraries understand and approach algorithmic literacy and possible community-driven strategies for building upon their current approaches. This study will also produce a report detailing these findings and open educational resources (OER) addressing the expressed needs and interests of participants." The survey is at https://cornell.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_ba9BraCaTSFEp2C and there is an information sheet at  https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AHCAa_24TUCfFlb1HP5LiHvzh8eQDdUcqzzt425WKWQ/edit
