Information Needs of CIS Users Common tasks may have common needs System knows: –Who the user is –Who the patient is –What the user is doing –What information the user is looking at We can predict the specific need User is sitting at a computer! We can automate information retrieval

64
Institution Customization Institution librarians know their clients best Institution librarians know their resources How can librarians populate Infobutton Manager tables? Terminology is institution-specific How do we handle institution-specific data translation?
65
Librarian Infobutton Tailoring Environrment (LITE) Specify user contexts Identify terminology in each context Information needs in each context Resources for resolving information needs Automating translation and querying

68
LITE Research Plan Conduct community assessment Refine LITE features Establish forum for feedback from librarians Develop LITE in an iterative manner Develop a user manual and tutorial Evaluate usability of LITE by librarians Evaluate the use of LITE Disseminate the results of the project Promote the use of the IM and LITE
69
Initial Efforts Drupal site Community of users Clear through Institutional Review Board Enroll “subjects” Make each draft a forum topic Collect feedback Iterate
72
Conclusion Infobuttons can anticipate and resolve clinicians’ information needs Institution-specific tailoring is required International standard will stimulate wider adoption Librarian Infobutton Tailoring Environment will put the Infobutton Manager on autopilot Enrollment now open!
