Create guidance for public users of Data.gov
User Story
In order to assist public users of Data.gov, there should be a guide/"how to" for most common uses of the catalog
Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] GIVEN a user goes to data.gov catalog or data.gov main page THEN there is a prominent link to additional resources explaining common uses of catalog.
Background
User testing in 2022 showed that the catalog is not easy to use for many public users without familiarity with Data.gov. While we have guides for agency users on resources.data.gov, we don't have similar guidance for public users.
Sketch
- [ ] Make a list of most common uses of data.gov
- [ ] Review findings in user testing
- [ ] Create a guidance document for common uses
- [ ] Post to resources.data.gov
- [ ] Link from main data.gov page, and catalog pages
