Event Description

Do you need a UX refresher?  Are you new to the practice of presenting your programs and services from the perspective of your library users?  Aaron Schmidt returns to SEFLIN for this new UX training series.

Library Design is more than choosing pretty colors. It’s all about solving problems and even if you don’t know it, you are a designer.  Schmidt will refresh participants on the concept of User Experience (UX) thinking and wil illustrate how it can help improve your website, programs, services, and more. After this interactive workshop you’ll have a keener critical eye, and a framework with which you can make your library the most important place in your community.
