This email is an invitation to participate in the DLF Assessment Interest Group's (DLF AIG) working group on User Experience<https://osf.io/zfqc3/wiki/home/> (UX) in 2018. There is more information about the group below, but first, a few words about participating in DLF AIG. The only requirement for participation in a DLF AIG working group is a willingness to dig in and devote a small part of your time contributing to the tools, methods, and body of knowledge on digital library assessment. Attendance at the DLF forum is not a requirement for participation in any of the working groups. Additionally, if your institution is not a DLF member, you can still participate. User Experience (UX) Working Group in 2017 * The User Experience (UX) Working Group takes a multi-faceted approach to determining the best way to develop guidelines and best practices in user and usability studies related to digital libraries. * In 2017, the team worked towards creating a web resource for digital library (DL) practitioners to reference when creating user personas for development and maintenance of digital libraries. * For more information about the group, see the User Experience (UX) Working Group wiki<https://osf.io/zfqc3/wiki/home/> or go to the Google Group<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/dlf-aig-ux-working-group> to get updated information.
