Abstract Academic libraries have increasingly adopted web-scale discovery tools in order to meet the expectations of students who want immediate results, efficient algorithms, and a single search box. As they have become the de facto search tool at many libraries, librarians and patrons alike have been forced to confront the way they think about research processes and in some cases, modulate ingrained habits. In this article, the authors explore student perceptions of efficacy, relevancy, and ease of use of a library discovery tool through a 2017 mixed-methods user experience study conducted at three City University of New York (CUNY) campuses. The results from this user study will be useful to other institutions that already have implemented discovery layers within their library and help inform website design, discovery layer design, and pedagogy. By combining student interviews with a task analysis, the authors were able to learn more about student search behaviors, how they respond to challenges, and what they expect from search tools. Identifying these barriers to student use of the Primo discovery tool has helped us articulate best practices for instruction and interface customization that may address these barriers and has illuminated implications for website integration.

在发现的觉醒中:学生的感知、整合和教学设计

摘要 学术图书馆越来越多地采用网络规模的发现工具,以满足想要即时结果、高效算法和单一搜索框的学生的期望。由于它们已成为许多图书馆事实上的搜索工具,图书馆员和顾客都被迫面对他们对研究过程的看法,在某些情况下,还要调整根深蒂固的习惯。在本文中,作者通过 2017 年在纽约城市大学 (CUNY) 三个校区进行的混合方法用户体验研究,探讨了学生对图书馆发现工具的有效性、相关性和易用性的看法。这项用户研究的结果将对已经​​在其图书馆中实施发现层的其他机构有用,并有助于为网站设计、发现层设计和教学法提供信息。通过将学生访谈与任务分析相结合,作者能够更多地了解学生的搜索行为、他们如何应对挑战以及他们对搜索工具的期望。确定学生使用 Primo 发现工具的这些障碍有助于我们阐明教学和界面定制的最佳实践,可以解决这些障碍并阐明对网站集成的影响。
