The document discusses a 2012 survey of higher education institutions regarding their use of viewbooks. The survey found that 71% of respondents still use print viewbooks. Comments from respondents noted that parents and students like having a physical viewbook to take home and reference when not online. However, some comments questioned whether viewbooks are still necessary given students' decreased use of print materials and concerns about sustainability. The document suggests that viewbooks should be integrated into a school's overall marketing strategy using both print and digital formats.
