[Workshop] Analyzing Your Deliverables: Developing the Optimal Documentation ...Scott Abel
Presented by Nicki Bleiel at Documentation and Training LIfe Sciences, June 23-26, 2008 in Indianapolis.
Documentation deliverables have evolved beyond manuals and online help in recent years, and with the emergence of Web 2.0, things are changing faster than ever. Technical communicators have many more options to enhance the user experience, and developing many of them provide the opportunity to work with other departments to find a more holistic approach to content development and delivery. But there is no one-size-fits-all set of solutions. This workshop will review the types of analysis you need to do to determine which deliverables are right for your project, your customer, and your company.
Other factors that can’t be ignored, such as translation needs, staff/time constraints, file size limitations, corporate image and control, and proprietary concerns will also be discussed, including:
Analyzing the Product
* Intended audience; delivery method (desktop, web application, etc.); competitor offerings; software development methodology. The UI as part of the Help system. Product Management expectations.
Identifying User Wants and Needs
* Preferences and expectations for information; work environment; knowledge and experience levels.
Ascertaining Internal Needs and Opportunities
* Working with Training, Support, and Marketing to reduce duplication and provide the user with consistent, useful information.
* Finding ways to incorporate information from other departments to improve documentation.
Accessing Deliverable Options
* What is the optimum mix for the product?
* The traditional: online help, manuals, embedded help, job aids, forums, web sites, technical support knowledgebases.
* Emerging trends: wikis, blogs, RSS feeds, software demonstrations, podcasts, and other collaborative tools. They can supplement and/or enhance the traditional. Or, they may be a better fit for internal knowledge management or marketing use.
Optimizing the Library
* Single-sourcing; best practices for structuring information; continuous publishing

This presentation has 3 parts:
- Web 2.0 – what is it?
- Glue of web 2.0 – some commonalities that most of these new sites have
- Then look at specifics – blogs, social networking sites, bookmark managers, wikis, IM, podcasting and videocasting
So, on to the first part...
Industry
8 similarities between many web 2.0 tools
Let’s take a look at some of these emerging trends
Subscribing via RSS – need an RSS reader…
gives our patrons a way to subscribe to the library
or to just the content they want
all original content that our staff is creating for our community
RSS feeds. We have about 30 of them!
It’s allowing us to combine content from different areas - like a librarian’s restaurant review and a book from the catalog - into a single article.
We also have mashups, like
[click]
copy paste into reader, click subscribe button, etc...
like an email reader - but for RSS feeds
Many ways to subscribe to feeds - depends on tool used
one of the most transformational changes on the web. Now, you can leave your opinion - in many places! This is huge - just a short 5 years ago, you couldn’t do that!
now to my slide - how would you have left a comment about a kid’s program 5-7 years ago in your library?
Never lose track of friends again!
two types:
sharing things - photos, videos
sharing yourself - thoughts and meeting people
Digital photo sharing website
Photos grouped by submitter, tags, and groups
searching
Commenting on each photo
RSS of photo feeds – user and tags
purchase a toy
Then kids, using a secret code that comes with their toy doll, ‘adopt’ the cuddly critter online at the webkinz website.
Once the toy has been ‘adopted’, kids can create virtual rooms on the webkinz website, find friends online, interact with each other, chat, and go hang out in other kids virtual rooms.
Cool, huh?
build-a-bearville
Runescape – chat!!! Anyone have patrons using this?
How about you - do you have an account?
Videos by young tscpl customers - we held a claymation workshop, and put the kids’ finished videos on our YouTube account.
We partnered with a local school to get some preteens to do book reviews. THis is one of the more popular ones:
Dr Dill show - watched 1025 times at of last night!
How many people came to your last pre-teen book club meeting?
Reaching out to kids and teens - what if barbie had a book club?
Quirky, sorta campy - but introduces the book, the author, other similar authors, movies with similar themes, etc...
This is key!
So now - what can you do with all that junkola I just described to death? Here’s what my library has done so far...
today, I want to introduce our digital branch to you. I’ll do that by
1. introducing you to the library - who we are
2. then explaining how that works digitally
3. then briefly sharing some goals
So first - who are we? Have you visited our library?
we’re busy! Our parking lot is always full, and lots of people walk in our front door to do many different types of things
They come for our content! Books, magazines, movies, databases, web access
They also come to “do community”
- to get reference help
- attend programs and events
We’re a community hub
Now let’s translate that into a digital setting...
when we started talking about creating a digital branch, we came up with 3 big goals for it:
... and we realized that if we pull this off, we’ll be running two libraries!
Who remembers these phrases - way back in the 20th century?
info sup - all about finding info online and surfing to other websites
virtual reality - mimicking real life...
Those are outdated phrases - today’s web is more like this: look at some of these!
Doesn’t this sound like real life? Real interactions, real business, will be happening in our digital branch.
Those are outdated phrases - today’s web is more like this: look at some of these!
Doesn’t this sound like real life? Real interactions, real business, will be happening in our digital branch.
so let’s look at content again - what’s that look like in our digital branch?
used to be books on a shelf
electronic resources
someone else’s content that we simply arranged nicely
Now:
RSS feeds - subscribed to, read when you’re ready to read
original content from librarians to their own community
and user-generated content... read that PATRON...
KCPL’s original content, rss, pointing to their stuff
RSS, original content, easy access to important stuff, easy access to librarian
PATRON-generated content
PATRON-generated content...
there’s our library catalog. the way you find books. this is from our old website - you have to visit the site to get to the catalog, and there’s only one place to find it.
But.........
Here’s what you find in our digital branch - multiple access points!
normal “go to the catalog” search
catalog search from our website
myspace catalog search
facebook catalog search.
More places to search = meeting our customers in their favorite hangouts on the web
It expands our reach
databases - we have about 100 - find articles, research info. Very cool!
Old way - one place to go, just a list with links
New way in the digital branch - allows finding them in different ways.
Popularity - good place to start.
Subject Guides (content arranged topically) - good place to start
More ways to access databases = more choices for patrons
Anyone heard of RSS? Easy stuff - it does one simple thing:
1. let’s you subscribe to parts of our website
We’ll be creating useful, fun content - from book reviews to how to get a job to fun things to do in Topeka
You can revisit the page - but a better way is to let the new stuff come to you!
And - you can do this using our digital branch
Anyone watch a YouTube video? Seen a photo on the web? You can do that at the library, too - see, hear, and watch what we’re doing - not just read about it.
All on our digital branch.
so that’s content. Lots of new stuff there! How about community? How do you “DO” community in a digital branch? Let me show you what I mean...
Remember our busy front door? We have a busy door on the digital branch, too.
This is our Grand Entryway. Our new digital branch. We’re still tweaking it... go live March 31!
But this isn’t our only door in our digital space!
Google is another door. Some google searches lead directly to us!
Facebook is another dor - type in topeka, and you get us... and the roadrunners.
Youtube - yet another digital entryway. People can find good content on Topeka because we’re already there.
Same with other search engines... we have MANY digital doors for our customers
How about reference? Asking questions? Big community, relational activity at the library. We have multiple ways to do that. We have an Instant Messaging access point on our main page - and even in our library catalog.
If you get stuck, you can quickly ask a librarian for help!
What if you have a question or comment while browsing through our website? You’ll be able to leave comments pretty much anywhere on our site - and we’ll answer you!
This is a way to start and continue conversations in our digital branch.
So - we hit on content and community and our digital branch.
What are our goals?
We want to share. We want to share our wonderful content.
We want to share the community happening inside our library and outside our walls.
We want to tell our stories to our county, and help the community tell their stories.
That’s what our digital branch is all about!
A big goal for us is telling our story. We hope to add value to Topeka and Shawnee County through our resources and our communities
Creating a more social, more community-driven digital presence helps us tell our story, and helps topeka tell us their stories!
(ideas from Beth’s Blog (Beth Kanter), originally from people on twitter).
Or realize that priorities have changed
don’t think of it as carving out time, make blogging an integral part of the organization’s outreach and marketing
Quote from a library director: “It’s a dilemma. We want to “unleash” our staff, but we also want to “control” the process. Do you have any practical suggestions for achieving both goals simultaneously? Or should we just relax, and acknowledge that the web 2.0 way of doing things is inherently disorganized and messy?”
... did not get it.
Rob - putting blogging on his calendar... managing off-desk time better. There are books on this...
A way to schedule priorities
Also write more than one post at a sitting. Write for an hour instead of write 1 blog post (from beth’s blog)
learning 2.0
- 15 minutes a day (you DO have this).
start with your interests
- find some blogs, start leaving comments
work through a learning 2.0 plan
play with new tools!
Now for the supervisors...
managers - don’t do this.
Quoting Michael Casey and Michael Stephens from CIL2008:
“Don't ask staff for input if you are not going to use it”
Teaching kids how to interact in the 21st century
web is turning into a digital place, a destination
we need to open those digital doors and invite our customers to interact with us...
Because - CLICK
