Redesign of Search, Navigation, and High Value Internal Pages
Creation of Capacity Tracker for COVID-19 Precautions
What was the Issue?
I collaborated with the design and development teams at SAI Digital to enhance the user experience of the Johns Hopkins Sheridan Libraries website. We solved for a variety of problems including:
- The confusion that the resource research feature presented
- Unorganized navigation
- Inability of users to find key information with ease
- Way for library visitors to check the available capacity of in-person occupancy
