User Interface Task Group

The User Interface Task Group was established by the Council of Library Directors, to begin in September 2005.

Charge:

This group directs the development of unified, harmonious, and usable designs for the consortia's public interfaces, such as the Catalog, Research Port, and Find It. The group plans, conducts, and evaluates the results of usability and other user testing; makes decisions and implements improvements to user interfaces; coordinates revision of help screens and user documentation as necessary; and works with the Electronic Collections Committee and other task groups and COIs as appropriate, to communicate and publicize interface changes.

As this is a relatively large group, five should be considered a quorum for meeting purposes, assuming a reasonable number of libraries are represented.
