*** Please excuse any cross-postings ***https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYpdeGqrzkrGde47weazQ81WwZpEa82OVsp Most of us know what a usability study is. We’ve seen countless articles across both the field of technical services and design, as well as library and information science. However, it can still feel inaccessible and difficult to design and execute a usability study in your own library. In this discussion, Harini Kannan (Senior UX Analyst, New York University Libraries) will detail step-by-step how she has run multiple usability tests in her library. This session will run through how to: formulate and design a good usability test; secure buy-in from colleagues; recruit participants; analyze data; disseminate findings; and more. Join us for an informal discussion of learning how to apply user experience (UX) research in practice at your library! If applicable to you, please come prepared with specific questions around usability studies you have or would like to plan at your libraries. We can use this space to workshop your ideas and work on any concerns.
