In an effort to assess user experience and satisfaction with searching the University of Michigan Library catalog, we developed an online data collection tool that captured both data on user searches and their reports on various aspects of the search experience. We successfully piloted the tool, demonstrating both the usefulness of the assessment data and the readiness of the tool for use with a larger group of campus stakeholders. We focus in this paper on the features and deployment of the data collection tool, and we also discuss our pilot phase findings and our plan to use the tool in future assessment work.
