			Based on this work, the User Studies Working Group focused on two projects in 2017:

			* Developing [[Assessment:User/Usability Studies Guidelines and Best Practices \| guidelines and best practices in digital library user experience]]
			* Conducting a [[Assessment:User/Reuse \| needs assessment for a toolkit to assess digital library reuse]]

			Both groups are still active and, as of 2018, exist as their own separate working groups.

			==== Usability Standardization ====

			Building off of data used to write [https://osf.io/uc8b3/ Surveying the Landscape: Use and Usability Assessment of Digital Libraries], the Usability Standards Subgroup focused on standardizing usability terms and processes by creating tags from existing literature on digital library usability. You can find more information on their work from the subgroup's [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B8QIcqLZNmd3Wk5meW84U3IwRVE Google Drive].
