This is the second posting I've made about the usability theme; the first came from a business orientation, this one is from a library perspective. The same theme needs to be emphasized for learning repositories and for the mediating sites that assist faculty users to optimize their use of learning repositories. ______ Usable Libraries. Library-usability.org is a great idea, but I wish it had an RSS feed in order to make it more usable in my news aggregator.  ;-) "library-usability.org is dedicated to the idea that libraries are critical to our communities. But to help people meet their needs, libraries must be usable in every facet of their service. Usability is about more than just software. It's about helping people accomplish their goals, and library usability asks: what can we do to help people in the way we operate, in the way we publish, in the way we deliver service, and in the way we use technology?
