D01: The Role of UX in Fostering a Place for Diversity
This panel will feature an interactive conversation with three UX practitioners with varying professional and cultural backgrounds. The three practitioners are also from three different types of libraries (medical, law, and undergraduate). By sharing our experiences we hope to encourage positive actions in UX library culture. We’re excited to share our insights, opinions and experiences.

D02: Creating a culture of user-centered decision making: A case study
Understanding the users’ experience with a system may be crucial to a project’s success, but how do you convey this to stakeholders and development partners? In this session, we will discuss how we are building a culture of user-centered decision making by integrating user experience methodologies into the design and development of information retrieval systems at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. We will also discuss how we adapted our approach to meet institutional and budgetary challenges.

D08: Content strategy in LibGuides: Preliminary results of an international environmental scan
In 2019, librarians from the University of Toronto conducted a survey to determine how administrators of LibGuides systems at academic institutions managed the content creation, maintenance, and oversight of their LibGuides. This session will summarize the results of that survey and implications they may have for institutions that use LibGuides.

D10: UX is Negotiation: Getting to Yes (One Sprint at a Time)
Our Applications Development & Support department in the Ohio State University Libraries has practiced Agile methodology for some time. In the last two years, they have begun to gradually incorporate user experience research and design as an influence on their sprint planning. This session will talk about the challenge of improving user experience as a negotiation between the project owner, the stakeholders, the users, the UX researcher, the front-end designer and the back-end developers.

D14: Improving Library Tutorials: The Multimedia Design Principles
Librarians are creating more online tutorials and videos to teach information literacy skills. Whether designing instruction online or in-person, research-based instructional methods are required and learning Mayer’s Multimedia Design Principles is the best place to start. In this session, you will learn about memory and how to minimize cognitive overload using these 12 principles: multimedia, spatial contiguity, temporal contiguity, coherence, modality, redundancy, individual differences, signaling, pacing, concepts first, personalization, and human voice.

D20: Holistic UX for services: or How I learned to stop worrying and love my robot overlord
In 2019, Temple University opened Charles Library, an evocative new building designed to connect users to service and technology-rich spaces. Shifting from a “book-centric” to “user-centric” environment, we loaded nearly 1.5 million volumes into an on-site automated storage & retrieval system. This presentation will discuss the development of a new request process as a case study, its impact on our UX practices, and the introduction of a holistic approach to user experience in the building.

D21-02: First Three Months On the Job: How to Get Started as a Library UX Researcher With No Prior Library Experience
In July 2019 I was hired as NYU Libraries’ first UX Researcher, but prior I had no library experience nor a library sciences degree. What does the first three months look like for someone in this position? This talk will discuss this journey, including the initial tasks, takeaways and milestones throughout the process. At the end, participants can engage with similar or different stories about their entry to Library UX or other questions.

Workshop: Understanding Library Metadata for Design & UX
Please bring a laptop to this session as you will be working within Zoom with a remote instructor. 

This workshop is available to in-person attendees in Austin only. It will not be viewable via the Online Conference platform. 

https://yale.zoom.us/j/496782488

This workshop teaches the fundamentals of library metadata standards and practices from the perspective of designing user interfaces. We cover standard descriptive practices from cataloging and digital collections and how they are frequently implemented. 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.
  2. identify strategies for isolating the effect of metadata from the effects of other design features.
