The User Experience: Just Fix It
<https://www.niso.org/events/2022/01/user-experience-just-fix-it> (discounts
for NISO members)

Wednesday, January 26, 12.00pm - 4.00pm Eastern Standard Time (Canada/US)

The user experience can be viewed through a variety of lenses. What makes
sense to the developer may be baffling to the user. How can we ensure that
users find the functionality or content they expect? That some useful
resource hasn’t inadvertently been hidden? Are there small tweaks that
could make a world of difference? Are they easy to make or will they
require a significant overhaul of the user interface? We’ll hear from a
group of industry professionals, with experience of enhancing the user
experience in various ways while keeping an eye on technical debt, costs,
and time. Speakers will include Lettie Conrad, LYC Consulting and Jessica
Smith, JSTOR Labs.
