Subject: New Discovery Platform for the Social Sciences & Humanities (European Project TRIPLE): User Research Survey

 
Dear Linguists,

We kindly invite you to take part in our User Research Survey, which is part
of the user research conducted for the European H2020 project TRIPLE
(https://www.gotriple.eu/).
 
The questionnaire is specifically targeted at researchers and academics from
the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) at any stage of their careers - from
Master student to full professor - who are currently working in a European
country.

The TRIPLE project was launched on 7 October 2019. It will be one of the
dedicated services of OPERAS (https://operas.hypotheses.org), the Research
Infrastructure supporting open scholarly communication in the Social Sciences
and Humanities in the European Research Area
(https://ec.europa.eu/info/research-and-innovation/strategy/era_en). At the
heart of the project is the development of the TRIPLE platform, an innovative
multilingual and multicultural discovery solution.

The results of the User Research Survey, which will be published in the
“Report on User Needs” in November 2020, will help us tailor the services and
tools of the TRIPLE platform to the needs of the SSH community.

We are therefore curious to find out what exactly you need and prefer as a
potential future user of the TRIPLE platform. In particular, we would like to
know more your work practices relating to digital technologies. This includes
information on your

- use of tools for discovery used to explore, find, access and reuse material
such as literature, data, projects, researchers' profiles etc. that they would
need for their own research work
- use of tools for the management and retrieval of material 
- use of tools for conducting research (including data collection and
annotation)
- use of tools for networking with colleagues or other stakeholders
- digital literacy and general discovery practices
- hardware devices used in the research cycle

The survey is open until 30 June 2020. It is in English, and it should not
take more than 10 to 15 minutes to answer the 21 questions. Click here to
access the Survey:
https://surveys.ekt.gr/index.php?r=survey/index&sid=819254&lang=en 

Your data will be collected and stored in a fully anonymised form and will
only be accessible to the project research team. You can find more information
on how your data will be handled in the consent form on the second page of the
Survey.

Should you encounter any technical difficulties, or should you require further
information about the Survey, please contact Dr Stefano De Paoli
(s.depaoli at abertay.ac.uk) or Dr Paula Forbes (p.forbes at abertay.ac.uk). 

We are looking forward to your input! Thank you for your cooperation and time.

Suzanne Dumouchel, TRIPLE project coordinator, on behalf of the TRIPLE
consortium
