Friday, September 22, 2017 9:00am - 3:45pm
The William and Idea Friday Center for Continuing Education, Chapel Hill NC
Continuing Education Course
Technology to Enhance User Experience in Libraries
MLA CE Credits: 4
Speaker: Jenny Emanuel Taylor, Assistant Regional Health Sciences Librarian, University of Illinois at Chicago, Library of the Health Sciences Urbana
This face-to-face CE course focuses on defining user experience and seeing what other libraries are doing to improve their services. We will talk about low-cost and simple, yet impactful, activities to turn your library into a user-centered environment. User experience is a method of assessing libraries that is not common in health sciences libraries. The term user assessment comes out of website design (as usability). However, other industries have found it useful to assess how users experience their services and spaces, and the idea and use of user experience research has grown over time. There are several ways of defining "user experience" to various physical and virtual spaces and services that a library may want to evaluate. For libraries, this can mean analyzing how users interact with your website to improve your virtual presence, observing users to improve your physical space, or interviewing how users research to improve services and instruction.Registration is limited to 25 participants.
