Report on User-Friendly WSU Library Website

        WSU or Western Sydney University is recognized as one of the best universities in the whole world. Its library provides its students with an online and multi-site presence which allows students and staff to access different resources of information. The university also has physical libraries in a number of locations but there is an issue that students are facing. First of all, the library website of the university is complex and it causes students to spend a significant amount of time to get access to the sources which they want to view and read. Moreover, it is even more challenging for mobile phone users to access the site.

Benefits of a User-Friendly Site and Mobile Application

A user-friendly site is more easy to use and it urges students to spend more time on the site rather than using external sources for studying.

It does not complicate students and does not require much time.

A mobile application for the library can facilitate all those students who cannot afford a computer or a laptop and prefer to use a mobile phone.

         It will make it easier for students to access the library and find the information that they want without having to be present where they have a laptop or a computer.

Negative Effects of Not Having a Mobile App

It makes students lose their concentration due to all the time and efforts they have to invest in accessing the library.

It tires the students and they don’t study due to it (Davies & Graff, 2005).
