Bookshare.org website redesign
Dear Booksharians,
I'm sending this email to you on behalf of the
web design team that is helping us redesign the
Bookshare.org website with funding from the new OSEP
grant. The firm is called Mile 7 and the person
doing the survey is Jayne Shurick, cc'd here. Jayne
is interested in doing some user interviews about
the web site.
Here are the specifics:
As you probably know, Bookshare.org has been
awarded a large grant by the Department of Education
to provide textbooks to students throughout the
United States. As part of this grant, the
Bookshare.org website is being redesigned to vastly
improve accessibility and usability. To kick off
this effort, we would like some Bookshare.org users
to participate in one-on-one interviews with our
contract usability engineer, Jayne Schurick. The
interviews will be conducted this week, December 4th
and 5th, and will require about 45 minutes of your
time. If you are interested in participating,
please respond to the questions below. Jayne will
select 10 users to participate and will contact you
via email to set up a time to talk using your
preferred mode of communication.
During the interview, Jayne will ask you
questions about how you currently use Bookshare.org
and your suggestions for the new website. In
addition, she will ask you to go to a website that
contains some very early prototypes of a new
homepage layout. She will ask if you like them and
how accessible they are to you.
If you're willing to be interviewed, please
respond to the following questions in an email to to
Jayne at jaynes@xxxxxxxxxx
Please feel free to resend this email to any
members of Bookshare who are offlist, such as those
who belong to Friends of Bookshare.
Here are the preliminary questions to help Jayne
select those she will interview:
Name
How long have you been a member of
Bookshare.org?
On average, how many books do you download per
month?
Do you submit scanned books?
Do you validate books?
Are you an educator or a student?
Your preferred method of communication, for
example by phone or email.
Your time zone
Preferred day, December 3rd, 4th, or 5th
Times you are available
Please email your responses to Jayne directly at
Jayne Schurick <jaynes@xxxxxxxxx and not to me. I
am cc'ing Jayne here.
Thanks, Lisa
(Manager, Bookshare.org)
