    • DSpace UX Testing:
      • Message sent to IR Managers by Colin Lukens:
      • The DSpace Community Advisory Team (DCAT) has sponsored a UX project team to perform targeted, lightweight user testing on version 7, with an anticipated start date of summer of fall 2024. The goal of this testing will be to suggest user improvements to DSpace8+ versions. In advance of this, we are planning to use a few established IRs for developing our tests and are looking for repository instances. These repository examples will help the project team to develop tests that are widely adaptable and represent real world instances of current DSpace.

        The project team is looking for 4-6 IRs that:
        - are running DSpace version 7.x
        - a mix of repositories that are using entities and some that are not
        - do not have a CRIS integration

        If your IR fits within the above parameters and would welcome this project using your repository as an example, please contact either me (colin_lukens@harvard.edu) or Erica Johns (emj73@cornell.edu)

        Outcomes of user testing will be shared with the DCAT community and DSpace steering, leadership, and committer groups for possible consideration in future DSpace releases.
