Volunteer to test Archival Sound Recordings website
21/07/2010 in Archival Sound Recordings, metadata | Tags: archival sound recordings, dissertation, metadata, user testing | Leave a comment
My current research is looking into the implementation of metadata standards in sound archives. This will involve user testing of the Archival Sound Recordings website at the British Library asĀ part completion of an MA Library and Information Studies course at University College London.
The user test should take no longer than 40 minutes involving an observation of how you use the website to complete set tasks and a short questionnaire to follow. I am particularly interested in the use of the website by the academic community, librarians, historians and the teaching profession.
If you would be interested in helping me, by taking part in this study, please contact me at scja73@gmail.com or via twitter @scja73.
Any help with my MA dissertation research would be gratefully received!
