Conventional Methods of Organizing and Retrieving Information
Conventional methods of organizing library collections include classification schemes, catalogs, and shelf lists. Classification schemes group materials by subject using a logical system to arrange knowledge. The Dewey Decimal and Library of Congress systems are two common classification schemes that assign call numbers to materials. Catalogs serve as indexes to the collection, indicating what a library holds and where items can be found. Shelf lists duplicate the physical order of materials on shelves for inventory purposes. However, static classification schemes face challenges of impermanence and need for continuous revision as knowledge and interests change over time.
Thinking about research

- Personal learning networks allow you to communicate through social media, blogs, and RSS feeds to stay informed on topics of interest.
- Search engines like Google can be used to find blogs and limit results to specific domains, while portal sites aggregate related websites on a topic.
- Directories are topical collections of websites created by humans that cover many subject areas.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
