[Cici Chen] Week1 – 2/05 -2/11

Week 1 

This weekly plan applied to both Cici and Tien since all the work was collaborations. The major goal for this week is to have an idea about what projects we will be working on for this semester and have the first study case started.
Goals:
  • Started/Postponed: Look over the Information Architecture diagram and map areas of interests.
    • Cici:
    • Operation hours
    • Easy way to inform people about software that LITS supports
    • Better system for fines and payments
  • Started: Create IS Website (Still in process of learning how to use Commons)
  • Finished: Visit study spaces and LITS website
  • Finished: Research on other university’s library website
  • Started/To be continued(TBC): List more than 10 interview questions (Tien will transform them into Google Form and probably have Dawn go over the questions before conducting interviews)
Summary for this week:
At the beginning, we were not sure how to start this independent study since not that much instruction was given but the meeting with Dawn on last Wednesday was really helpful. We started with visiting study and meeting spaces and different library websites to get a general idea of what kind of information might be missing on our LITS website. On Sunday, Tien and I met for two hours to generate a list of interview questions and create our study web page. Also, we looked through the LITS Information Architecture diagram and mapped couple areas of interest (see above).
