user-Centered digital library
The purpose of this study was to find out whether users should be involved in the design stage of a Digital Library (DL). Hence an experiment has been undertaken to find out the level of user satisfaction with a user-centred DL (UDL) compared to a non-user-centred DL (NDL). In this experiment, the UDL prototype has been compared with the NDL prototype. The two prototypes were then evaluated by ...
متن کاملEvaluating User Behavior on Data Collections in a Digital Library
We evaluate the usage of a Digital Library with many different collections, by examining its log files, and we concluded that the access points that the users mostly refer to, depend heavily on the type of content of the collection. We also found that most users not only tend to use simple query structures (e.g. one search term) and very few operations per session but they also reduce the compl...
متن کاملUser Behavior Tendencies on Data Collections in a Digital Library
We compare the usage of a Digital Library with many different categories of collections, by examining its log files for a period of twenty months, and we conclude that the access points that the users mostly refer to, depend heavily on the type of content of the collection, the detail of the existing metadata and the target user group. We also found that most users tend to use simple query stru...
متن کاملAlexandria digital library: user evaluation studies and system design
The Alexandria Digital Library (ADL) is one of the six digital library projects funded by NSF, DARPA, and NASA. ADL’s collection and services focus on information containing georeferences: maps, images, data sets, text, and other information sources with links to geographic locations. During this study period, three different user interfaces were developed and tested by user groups. User feedba...
متن کاملA User-Centric, Layered Digital Library Framework
Currently, there exist a large number of superb digital libraries, all of which are, unfortunately, vertically integrated and all presenting a monolithic interface to their users. Ideally, a user would want to locate resources from a variety of digital libraries dealing only with one interface. A number of approaches exist to this interoperability issue exist including: defining a universal pro...
