Abstract

Usability testing is too often overlooked as a significant step toward retaining an audience for a digital library website. Attendees will gain tools they need to know what user experience testing is, how it affects digital libraries, and how to integrate iterative design based on usability data into their own digital library.


Learning Objectives

Following this session, participants in this workshop will be able to evaluate the usabilty of digitized materials on two different public websites. They will also know how to incorporate eye tracking methods into usability testing of their own websites.
