Academic e-reading: themes from user experience studies
The document summarizes key themes from a user experience study on academic e-reading. It found that convenience is important to students, as they prefer familiar systems. However, fragmentation of content across multiple tools and devices hurts the experience. Collaboration and social features are important to support the social aspects of learning. Finally, e-books need to better take advantage of the digital medium, such as improved annotation tools, zooming of images, and integration with other tools and platforms to reduce fragmentation. The document discusses how e-books could address these themes to better meet student and researcher needs.
Overcoming the Challenges to Creating an Online User Experience
The modern library web environment consists of multiple content sources and applications that perform essential functions that often overlap and could potentially create a fractured user experience. For example, content in a library’s website may be replicated in LibGuides, blogs, a knowledge base, or even a course management system like Blackboard. Search functionality in a discovery platform may be replicated in a federated search tool or the ILS OPAC. What's even more challenging is that all these tools might be managed by different departments within your library. This presentation will highlight the technical and political challenges to building a single web experience for users and really focus on how to overcome these challenges.

The document discusses how e-books could address these themes to better meet student and researcher needs.
Overcoming the Challenges to Creating an Online User ExperienceRachel Vacek
The modern library web environment consists of multiple content sources and applications that perform essential functions that often overlap and could potentially create a fractured user experience. For example, content in a library’s website may be replicated in LibGuides, blogs, a knowledge base, or even a course management system like Blackboard. Search functionality in a discovery platform may be replicated in a federated search tool or the ILS OPAC. What's even more challenging is that all these tools might be managed by different departments within your library. This presentation will highlight the technical and political challenges to building a single web experience for users and really focus on how to overcome these challenges.

This document provides an overview of Web 2.0 and learning 2.0. Some key points made include:
- Web 2.0 focuses on online applications accessed through a browser that enable social interactions and sharing. Social aspects are important to both the business model and user appeal.
- Learning 2.0 recognizes the use of social software by learners and aims to incorporate Web 2.0 tools and a participatory pedagogy into education.
- Both teachers and learners need to develop digital literacy skills to take advantage of Learning 2.0 approaches. Web 2.0 offers opportunities for collaboration, networking, and sharing content but also poses some risks around the digital divide and reliance on specific service providers.
This document discusses practical uses of Web 2.0 tools in libraries and organizations.
