Report from DURT ( Ben Howell)

2. Results: Distributed Usability Research Team (DURT)
3. Questions about next steps?

    1. Giarlo: Design recommendations should be integrated into Hyrax and bug fixes should be added directly to github for Hyrax and Sufia where impacted.
  2. Where should the feedback be communicated? Hyrax Team, Sufia Team, ...?
    1. Giarlo: Bring these results and discussion to Hydra Partners meeting @ Stanford in March.
    2. Giarlo: Hyrax road map will be discussed and these UX/Usability results could help.

Display Sets and User Collections ( Lynette Rayle)
1. Working with multiple institutions on defining requirements on how Display Sets should function.
2. Could Display Sets be a replacement for User Collections?
  1. Cole: Penn State and Notre Dame have a need for user created collections.
  2. Rayle: Would giving the users the ability to make private collections and allow only and administrator to publish them publicly work?
  3. Friesen: Possibly if they allowed for group assignments as well as individual rights assignments.
3. Blacklight Folders? Could this be useful in filling the gabs left by only using Display Sets?
4. Migration path should be clearly defined and documented for users who have collections.
5. Lynette is going to post to Hydra Tech for more use case feedback
