Abstract

Presents an evaluation of the user friendliness of the OPAC Windows based graphical interface: Viewpoint, from the integrated computerized library system: Galaxy 2000. Presents the criteria of user friendliness on which there is a consensus in the literature and applies these to Viewpoint: screen layout and design; highlighting techniques; language; user support and orientation; help; searching; response time; security; and advanced user features. Identifies flaws and presents recommendations for their correction
