UX as a tool for equity. My talk is entitled Elevating Voices. Here’s the summary:

    Higher Education is facing financial crisis. When budgets tighten, services often shrink to fit the needs of the majority, and ‘maintaining core services’ can easily become a proxy for exclusion. By designing for the ‘typical’ user – those with the fewest barriers and the most flexibility – we inadvertently sideline marginalised groups with complex needs.

    This keynote positions UX work as an essential tool for equity. We will explore how libraries can represent the underrepresented, elevate diverse perspectives and ensure our institutions remain inclusive, authentic spaces for everyone.

I am keynoting my all time favourite conference #UXLibs! In my home town. This is something about which I have zero chill. I am completely thrilled. 📚

I've written about my topic - Elevating Voices - & why I love UXLibs, AND some York eating recommendations, at: www.ned-potter.com/blog/elevati...

Thanks. I think it’s usually just #uxlibs (not a specific hashtag for each year), so I have added the conference w to the 2025 lists, with dates along with the hashtag.

And to my panel partner in crimes Venessa Bennett and Joel McGeorge, I think we did a great job under the grilling questions!

Last week I delivered a workshop at #UXLibs exploring the potential of UX methods in information literacy teaching. Will share the ideas that we generated and would love to build a resource to support librarians in developing and using UX in the classroom.

Involve not only critical stakeholders (I.E attitudinal data on culture change) but staff who are impacted by user concerns- in this case, library security guards 👏 #uxlibs

Great couple of days at the #uxlibs conference in Liverpool. Such a welcoming, inclusive event. Enjoyed presenting the UX work we’ve been doing at Leeds Beckett Library and hearing about all the other great projects taking place around the UK & internationally.

A graphic explaining permanent. Temporary, and situational disability.

Important point from Stéphanie Walter- disability is experienced on a spectrum. Users who seem “fine” one day are the same people who struggle the next. Both situations are true for that user and experience can move up and down the spectrum.

Day one at #uxlibs featured some interesting talks! It’s the first time in a while that I’ve been to a conference where I don’t know anyone. But the sun is shining and my favourite university real ale pub is next door
