Data Issues/Task Force

 

  •  

 

Primo Mobile Experience

Julie/Ken/Chris

  • Can see dashboard statistics by campus

  • Significant usage by android and iphone (5% or so)

  • Are we testing new features on mobile devices?

    • Could this be based on QR code usage? You can get numbers for the brief results actions

    • We can see session info vs actions

    • Can we compare campus with a QR code vs no QR code

  • SFSU does regular UX testing, would be useful to do more testing

  • Keep an eye out at ELUNA

  • Is everything working on mobile that should? Do all features appear. Making a list of features we would expect.

 

OneSearch Aids

@Keven Jeffery (Unlicensed)

Are there programmers around the CSU that could collaborate?

  • We need Angular JS knowledge

  • We’d need to create a community and keep it engaged

  • Are we using the APIs?

  • Hard to maintain projects long term, don’t have the necessary people

Are there any aids we could create to help campuses better utilize OneSearch features

  • Digital Collections - thumbnail

  • Resource Recommender templates/Instructions)?

  • Custom Javascript - HathiTrust

  • Carousel code? - Youtube video?

  • Import Profiles - why importing archives is problematic

  • Primo How To LibGuides - Does one exist already ? Can we repurpose existing information

 

 

Action Items

  • Ask Christina for stats for the entire system

    • Calendar year 2023 for each campus

    • Same information as device usage dashboard for each campus

    • We would want numbers over percentages

  • Keven - Look at SDSU QR Code usage vs mobile device usage

  • Keven - ask on slack about who’s using the apis

  • Is there a Primo VE sandbox?
