Alignment with User’s needs:
• Most digital library user research has been
conducted in higher education
- MESL - UC Berkeley - Penn State
• Primary focus of research has been in the
on the transition from slides to digital images
• Very little is known in regards to digital
library applications in the K-12 classroom or
the public library environment

Adapting to Innovation:
The amount of experience users have with a
resource can affect their ability to identify
what they need from the resource

Conclusions
• More research is needed to determine the needs of
specific audiences in accessing and using digital
libraries of cultural heritage information
• AMICO’s multi-distributor model now offers an
unique environment for investigating relationships
between multiple interfaces and the needs of specific
audiences
• AMICO will begin to seek partners and funding to
conduct ongoing research in this area, sharing
findings with the entire museum community
