Sylvie Tremblay, Manager, Online Content of the Library and Archives Canada (LAC), has sent out the following press release -
‘Library and Archives Canada is conducting a usability study of our to gather information about how visitors use our website. This study includes a question about digital content available on the LAC website. Please note that the identity of respondents is strictly confidential’.
The study can be accessed at: http://fluidsurveys.com/surveys/lacbac01/lac/ until March 6th.
If you have any questions about the study, please contact: webservices@bac-lac.gc.ca.
So I took the survey, and found that they asked very good questions, such as how did you find the LAC website and what (records) were you searching for today?
The questions caused me to think, and the two things that I would like to see added would be the 1851, 1861 and 1871 agricultural census and the vast collection of newspapers that they have onsite. Whether they will accommodate my wish list remains to be seen.
What did you think of the survey? What would you like to see in the future as far as digital content is concerned? Are there questions that they should have asked, and didn’t?
