Most deliverables from the usability assessment have been received and will be reviewed with a panel of ALA members and staff on December 18, 2006, in Chicago. The result of the retreat will be a plan for moving forward with needed changes to the website. See http://blogs.ala.org/webplanning.php for more information.
UserWorks is analyzing the results of the online survey that came down October 2. Focus groups were held in Silver Spring, MD on October 10 and 11. UserWorks reports a lot of good information was received. Usability testing was done the week of October 16 - 20, and results are now being analyzed as well. A full report of the usability assessment is expected by mid-November
The website survey went live on September 5th and will remain up until October 2nd. Analysis of the survey results is expected to be completed during the first week of October. UserWorks is currently screening potential focus group participants. Two focus groups will be held, one consisting of 5-8 ALA members and one consisting of a similar number of non-members. Focus group sessions will take place in UserWorks state of the art facility in Silver Spring, MD.

The Web Editorial Board is moving forward on plans for a usability assessment of the ALA website. Rob Carlson has begun drafting an RFP for the testing. The usability assessment will lead to redesign recommendations that we will implement as resources become available.
