摘要

在孟菲斯大学,一组图书馆员和图书馆工作人员组成了研究指南重新设计团队(RGRT),重新设计、组织和评估大学图书馆(UL)的研究指南。该项目的目的是确保研究指南主页的新设计直观易用。虽然不可能确保每个用户的绝对可用性,但这项可用性研究试图消除孟菲斯大学社区体验中最常见的界面问题。RGRT进行了可用性测试,以评估新的标准化格式、分组标题和界面外观的有效性。RGRT在Springshare软件的限制下创建了设计,然后选择了五个用户来完成各种任务场景。在分析了用户完成任务的能力后,RGRT发现,总体而言,设计是有效的,但他们确实做了一些小的改变。本研究描述了整个过程,包括原始设计、新设计、可用性测试后的编辑以及未来测试的计划。

Redesigning Research Guides
At the University of Memphis, a team of librarians and library staff formed the Research Guides Redesign Team (RGRT) to redesign, organize, and evaluate the University Libraries’ (UL) research guides. The purpose of the project was to ensure that the new design of the research guides homepage was intuitive to use. While it is impossible to ensure absolute usability for every user, this usability study attempts to eradicate the most common interface issues in community experiences at the University of Memphis. The RGRT conducted usability testing to evaluate the effectiveness of the new standardized format, grouped headings, and the appearance of the interface. The RGRT worked within the limitations of Springshare’s software to create the design and then chose five users to complete various task scenarios. Upon analysis of the users’ ability to complete the tasks, the RGRT discovered that overall, the design was effective, but they did make a few minor changes. This study describes the process and includes the original design, the new design, edits made after usability testing was conducted, and plans for future testing.
