User Experience in Libraries: Applying Ethnography and Human-Centred Design

No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781472484727

In this groundbreaking new book, library practitioners, anthropologists, and design experts combine to advocate a new focus on User Experience (or 'UX') research methods. Through a combination of theoretical discussion and applied case studies, they argue that this ethnographic and human-centred design approach enables library professionals to gather rich evidence-based insights into what is really going on in their libraries, allowing them to look beyond what library users say they do to what they actually do. Edited by the team behind the international UX in Libraries conference, this volume will ignite new interest in a rapidly emerging area of research.
