Greetings! Are you or a colleague in need of a user experience starter or refresher? Want more UX allies in your organization? Check out our preconference at the ALA Annual Conference in Chicago! RUSA’s Emerging Technologies Section (ETS) is hosting *“We Are All User Experience Librarians: Creating Change from the Trenches” *on Friday, June 23 from 9am-noon. Tickets can be purchased at http://2017.alaannual.org/t icketed-events#RUSA. This event will focus on user testing and experience using discussion, presentations, and interactive exercises. The presenters will offer strategies and tools from throughout the life cycle of a user experience design project, and will provide an entertaining look at pitfalls to avoid and lessons learned. Unlike other sessions about UX design, the workshop will focus on providing attendees with skills and techniques they can apply at their home institutions with little expense or pre-planning. *Speakers: *Pete Coco, Web Services Librarian, Boston Public Library; Deirdre Costello, User Experience Researcher, EBSCO Information Services; Heidi Steiner Burkhardt, User Experience Specialist, University of Michigan Library; Carrie Moran, User Engagement Librarian, University of Central Florida. Please feel free to contact me directly with any questions about the program. Take care, Heidi --- Heidi Steiner Burkhardt | User Experience Specialist | University of Michigan Library [log in to unmask] | 734.615.6130 | @heidi_sb
