How Web 2.0 Should ALA Go?

Project J: How Web 2.0 Should ALA Go?

• Poster presentations for ALA Emerging Leaders 2010
• Abstract: To inform the transition of the ALA.org website to a new content management system, Team J worked to assess membership opinion towards the adoption of Web 2.0 tools. Through a survey of ALA members and the library community, we analyzed the interactivity needs of ALA.org users. Team J formulated website recommendations in the form of wireframes and mock-ups based on the feedback collected in the survey data.

1.  The online survey featured a series of questions in regards to the ALA Website, experiences with ALA Connect, and user collaboration. Questions were designed to provide both quantitative and qualitative data. Demographic information was provided on a voluntary basis. The survey was distributed via various listservs, social media outlets, and through official ALA communication channels.
