  • Advising on which resources are needed by the target user population

Interface refinement:

  • Evaluating interfaces for usability and functionality
  • Providing iterative feedback to your developers

Content organization and clean-up:

  • Checking indexing terms and identifying mis-labeled records
  • Generating subject-specific title lists for content collections
  • Creating subject taxonomies for browse lists

Outreach to the library community:

  • Creating and maintaining written training materials
  • Generating marketing materials
  • Providing support to librarians and to end users
  • Representing your resources at conferences
