Abstract

In December 2019, Binghamton University Libraries initiated a website redesign project. Our goal was to create a user-centred, data-driven website with refreshed content and upgraded functionality. Originally, our redesign plan included in-person card-sorting activities, focus groups, and usability studies, but when the Libraries went remote in March 2020, we had to quickly reassess and adapt our processes and workflows. In this presentation, we will discuss how we completed this significant project remotely by relying on effective project management, communication, teamwork, and flexibility. We will also share the outcomes of the project and discuss our future goals for the Libraries' website.
