  2. Usability and the Digital Library As a librarian, what set of assumptions do you make about your users when you create digital library resources?  

  3. Usability Defined Usability studies how users engage a given product. It draws from the principles of user-centered design, which places successful user interaction with a product as key to redesign. Usability is not a focus group—we are not testing whether users like the product (solely); rather we are testing their ease-of-use or navigational success of a product.

  4. D.E.A.R. • Discovery • Evaluation • Analysis • Reporting

  5. Usability Triangle See Say Do

  6. Usability Research Methods • Active Intervention • Eye Tracking • Pre- and Post-Test Surveys • Retrospective Recall • Think Aloud Protocol • Movement Tracking (mouse clicks, dwell time, time on task) • Observing User Behavior

  7. M.E.E.L.S. • Memorability • Errors • Efficiency • Learnability • Satisfaction

  8. Test Plan • Client • Research Description • Goals • Users/target audience • Tasks • Methodology • Test Script • Analysis • Reporting

  9. Paper Prototyping It’s your turn!

  10. Iterative Design Iterative design is a process whereby the usability test results of a product lead to multiple stages of redesign. This means users give feedback on the product at all points in the product’s design: from planning, to building, to finishing the product. Iterative design centers the user in building products and systems.
