New FamilySearch.org Evaluators Needed

Renee's Note: This message was sent to all Family History Consultants. I have decided to include the full text so you will have a greater feel for the request. You will be interested to know that this is the first request for non-LDS members to evaluator the New FamilySearch.org website.

Request for Family History Consultants to Find Evaluators for the New FamilySearch.org Web Site


The FamilySearch evaluation team in the Family History Department invites you to help us find English-speaking individuals who can spend an hour of their time to help us evaluate the new FamilySearch.org Web site. We are seeking individuals interested in family history, including you, but especially those inexperienced in doing family history. We will be evaluating new and future design concepts for the FamilySearch.org Web site.

Since those who naturally enjoy family history work will likely be the type of person to volunteer, we ask that a special effort be made to invite individuals you know who are new to or inexperienced in doing family history. We need them to help determine if the Web site is simple and easy to use.

Please e-mail the information below to family and friends who are over age 18, including Church members and nonmembers. You can copy and paste the information into an e-mail you send.

We very much appreciate your willingness to help us. If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to the address below.

Sincerely,
The FamilySearch User Experience Evaluation Team

Please e-mail the following request to family and friends, including Church members and nonmembers:

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is developing a new version of the FamilySearch.org Web site. This new Web site will help individuals identify ancestors and link them to families, and it will help Church members perform temple ordinances for their ancestors.

Can you volunteer an hour of time to help evaluate this new Web site? Do you know someone else who might be interested? We are looking for feedback to help make the Web site as easy and enjoyable to use as possible. We are especially interested in feedback from individuals who are new to family history.

Anyone over age 18 interested in participating in this evaluation is invited to go to the following Internet address to sign-up: http://labs.familysearch.org/temple/static/signup.htm

Thank you for your interest and enthusiasm. We greatly value your time and opinion.

Sincerely,

The FamilySearch User Experience Evaluation Team
Family History Department
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
