Designer's Toolkit? Designer's Workshop? Designer's Bookshelf? User-Centered Design Kitchen? User-Centered Design Library? It really is more like a set of tools than like a set of guidelines.

Whaa? +1 I agree. "Toolkit" sounds like exactly that - if Im not interested in learning how to use a new "tool" then I would never explore it. I would miss out on a wealth of research information and guidlines.

Some of the new members our team were confused by the name as I was when I first heard it. General reactions were: "What is UX?" "Toolkit sounds like it's something technical. Something developers would use." "Toolkit for user experience. What could it be... Is it like diagrams?" If I was looking for information on say, "how to do user testing", I would never think to click on something called "UX Toolkit". We have great stuff in UX Toolkit, and I think it will be seen and used more if the name was more intuitive, perhaps something like "Design Guidelines". What do others think?
