Re: [CODE4LIB] Controlled vocab useful for describing skin tone

Thanks Jasmine and Allison -- this is very helpful. I was totally barking up the wrong tree. Tone charts lend themselves to all sorts of possibilities both at the the metadata and discovery levels. I don't know what we'll wind up doing, but it's hard to imagine we won't incorporate at least some

[CODE4LIB] Controlled vocab useful for describing skin tone

Howdy all, I'm trying to wrap my mind around an image project that allows clinicians and students to see how different medical conditions visually manifest themselves on different skin tones and types. I suspect we'll use ICD-10 to describe conditions, but I'm curious as to what recommendations

Re: [CODE4LIB] Usability and A/B test results clearinghouse

I would be interested in collaborating in some way as well. I’d especially like to see some documentation for some qualitative usability approaches (focus groups, interviews, etc.) since I think those tend to get short shrift in some of the existing material. Jeanine

[CODE4LIB] Usability and A/B test results clearinghouse

I am wondering if there exists some kind of clearinghouse of data from usability tests and A/B tests on digital libraries and archives. Or, if such a thing does not exist, if members from this community would be interested in building one with me. I’m sure many results have been published in
