Finally, we will explore strategies for testing the impact and effectiveness of metadata choices on user experience.

Following this session, participants will be able to: 
  1. discuss the impact of metadata standards and practices on design and functionality.

Workshop: Go UX Yourself: Running a Space Design Workshop for Library Employees
This workshop is available to in-person attendees in Austin only. It will not be viewable via the Online Conference. 

While UX practice continues to grow in libraries, Employee Experience (EX) is often overlooked. This workshop will introduce practitioners to EX through a practice space redesign scenario in a fun, low-stakes, learning environment. Takeaways include a resource bank with descriptions of the activities and techniques used in the workshop and example outlines to craft and run your own EX space redesign workshop.

Following this session, participants will be able to:
  • understand the basics of Employee Experience research, how it relates to and differs from User Experience research.
  • utilize UX techniques to research and improve library employee experience.
  • facilitate a space design workshop for library employees.
