P ROTOTYPE 01 – D ESIGN Simplified grid based system Keep Textual Directions

P ROTOTYPE 01 – F INDINGS The simplified map was confusing Textual directions lacked detail, but still helpful “It’s a lot more convenient because I like going through directions” – Pilot U01 “Don’t know where to start counting (the rows)” – Pilot U01

P ROTOTYPE 02 – D ESIGN Change the map to resemble actual floorplan map

P ROTOTYPE 02 – D ESIGN More detailed directions.

P ROTOTYPE 02 – F INDINGS The map was used more, but still confusing Actual map on the floor is different from the website’s map Fig 01. Website’s map Fig 02. Actual floor map

P ROTOTYPE 02 – F INDINGS “The map should be oriented correctly, as opposed to upside-down.” – U03 “Kind of confusing about which aisle to walk from.” – U02 “Gives you a specific location to go to, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the library” – U01

P ROTOTYPE 03 – DESIGN Flip the map to match floor map

P ROTOTYPE 03 – F INDINGS No more map confusion “Textual directions helped the most. I’m not very good with maps. The text was very clear and effective.” – U04 “It gives you a clear picture of where to go after leaving the elevator.” – U06 “It does make it easier to find the book and gives you a basis for where the book is so you don’t get lost.” – U05
