The Collaborative Futures Discovery and User Experience Subcommittee (CFDUX) creates policies and procedures related to public interfaces, in particular, the Omni academic search tool, for all participating schools to follow.
CFDUX develops recommendations for shared configuration, usability testing, user experience and accessibility efforts for the Omni academic search tool. The subcommittee provides advice on configuration options in the Network Zone and member Institution Zones that reflect the intent of approved policies. CFDUX was established in 2019 and reports to the Collaborative Futures Steering Committee.
