ALXnow needs your help in order to better serve the Alexandria community.
No more than once a year, ALXnow conducts a reader survey. The eight-question 2021 ALXnow Reader Survey should take no more than 5 minutes to fill out, but will have a big impact on the site.
The survey asks about potential new features, adjustments to our news coverage, and your satisfaction with our Alexandria reporting. We’ll put the responses into action throughout 2021.
We would greatly appreciate if you would take the time to tell us how we’re doing and what we can do better, by taking the survey. Thank you!
