Notes

Abstract: This project used both qualitative and quantitative research methods, including card-sorting (user research) activities, and a survey to evaluate subject values applied in the University Photography Collection (https://digital.library.unt.edu/explore/collections/UNTPC/). We wanted to answer several research questions: What subject terms do users prefer to search (or assign) to find particular images? What subject terms do users feel are "appropriate" or "inappropriate" for specific images? What expectations do users have about search results based on specific subject terms? Funding was requested for training related to this project, branded "swag" incentives for a subset of users, and web software to support interactive user research.
