You are conducting a statistical survey of library users. There are approximately 2500 people in the population (library patrons in a month), and you have a full list of their names, phone numbers, addresses, time & date of last visit, and any other reasonable information. If you want to create and survey a fair sample of 25 people, describe how you could do so using the following techniques. Be sure to include how you would contact your subjects. Cluster random sampling Multistage random sampling
