Congratulations to Ms. Angsurat Raya and Asst. Prof. Somsak Sriborisutsakul, Ph.D., for receiving the best paper award presented at the 5th International Conference on Information Science (ICIS 2022). Titled “Use of the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory to Assess Thai Librarians’ Burnout During the COVID-19 Pandemic”, the research aims to gather respondents’ feedback about the survey instrument developed to assess Thai librarians’ burnout level and to prepare survey administration before launching the main study. Twenty Thai librarians from public and special libraries in the government sector tried out the 46-item questionnaire. The questionnaire includes 12 items of demographic information, 15 items about working situations during the COVID-19 pandemic, and 19 personal-related, work-related, and client-related burnout measures based on the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory. Findings indicated that the majority of the survey questions could be employed in actual data collection.
