I don't know of a list like this that exists anywhere. I would however be
willing to talk with you about our own collections and audiences.

Perhaps a literature review may yield something like this.

This DPLA tutorial on promoting digital collections provides some good tips
on identifying audiences based on the content you have.

[CODE4LIB] Where can I find a basic set of user stories for a digital library?

2016-05-11 Thread Wilhelmina Randtke
Does anyone have a set of user stories for a digital library that you'd be
willing to share?  Or, is there a good place to look this up and pull a set?

I'm working with these types of materials:  old photos, digitized books,
digitized newspapers, ETDs.  Pretty much the basics of digital library
content.  I'm interested in a listing of ways people would use these, so I
can better understand what the platforms I'm working with do well and where
gaps are.
