State Library Website Re-design

•

For a re-design of a state library website, I led research initiatives which included a survey, depth interviews, an heuristic evaluation, a competitive assessment, and personas. I also conducted a content inventory and re-created the information architecture of the site. Finally, I developed wireframes to inform the design of the new interface.

Competitive Assessment

To determine best practices for a state library website, I conducted a competitive assessment of five other state library websites.

User Interviews and Observation

I conducted a series of in-depth interviews with several different types of users to better understand user behavior, use patterns, goals and motivations.

Persona Ideation and Creation

Using data collected from depth interviews, I created three different personas to represent three distinct user types of the library system.

Site Map

After conducting research, I re-organized the content of the old state library website and drafted a new site map to better serve the needs of the library's users.
