Purpose of Subteam: To develop functional and practical recommendations to the program that streamline navigation, clarify the visual layout, identify accessibility improvements, and enhance the ease of use of the existing program for both the staff and public interface of the ArchivesSpace software application.
Major Activities of Subteam:
- In collaboration with the Development Prioritization subteam, investigate and provide supplemental documentation in the form of comments, wireframes, and specifications to existing “usability” Jira tickets in the “Awaiting more information” queue.
- Solicit community feedback as necessary including listserv posts, community discussions, and surveys.
Average Workload: The Usability subteam meets as a full group for an hour meeting once a month. The team splits into public interface and staff interface subgroups, which also meet once a monthly independently. The estimated average time commitment is approximately 3-4 hours per month.
