Personas
Researcher/Professor
question about "links to different works" and whether or not this is to accommodate links within the system or outside of the system. General intention that it would link to other objects within the system. However, a file could be uploaded into the system as part of a work that lists works outside of the system.
ways to pull information from other sources would be a time saver for this persona. ORCID, DOI, etc. The effort to upload and add metadata is at times a barrier.
the UI should be simple to accommodate this persona
tends to be a lack of awareness about IR and its uses.
copyright restrictions tend to be problematic for this persona when uploading work
versioning an important part of the persona for things like software and data sets
statistics about work(s) important; views, downloads, etc.
Research Assistant (previously Grad Student)
same basic needs/goals as researcher
ETDs are out-of-scope for Sufia UI and require different workflow and approval process
works on behalf of a researcher
bulk upload to be addressed in tech persona
could use a little more work
Repository Tech (previously Proxy)
minimal metadata
assigned as a proxy by librarian, cataloger, etc
participates in a project
not in cataloging
high volume
not a content expert
sometimes each upload needs to be evaluated individually
cataloger has metadata expertise
regular user
not a first timer
tech gets it "up there"
