Dear Trove Redesign Community of Practice members,
It’s been a little while since we were all last in touch – but a great deal of Trove Redesign-related planning has been happening in the meantime. I’d like to give you a quick update, and ask for your help in sharing some news.
From today, we’ll begin asking prospective and existing Trove users if they’d like to be involved in online or in-person testing, and sharing feedback on Trove. The activities will take place over the next 6-8 months, and volunteers may be invited to participate once, or several times, during this period. As Community of Practice members, we will be sending you requests for more specialised input, but you are also welcome to participate in these more general activities.
The campaign will kick off with a Facebook post in which we encourage followers to sign up and share the link – and we’ll continue to share this information on a regular basis, so recruitment will be ongoing.
The link to share is: https://confirmsubscription.co m/h/i/D1107F9505667111 https://confirmsubscription.com/h/i/D1107F9505667111 There’s also a short web page for more context here: http://help.nla.gov.au/trove/keeping-up-to-date http://help.nla.gov.au/trove/keeping-up-to-date Please feel free to share widely – we’re seeking volunteers of all ages and backgrounds, including people who may not have used Trove before. Please let me know if you’d like any more details.
I’ll be sending another email update soon, as there’s more information to share on upcoming testing and feedback opportunities that are specific to the Community of Practice.
Kind regards, Cheney
