The Library recently conducted usability research of our new search discovery tool ONESEARCH to evaluate the interface, determine whether the tool served MSK users in an intuitive way, identify problem areas, and share possible improvements. The resulting feedback will be relevant in guiding future enhancements to ONESEARCH. We want to thank all the participants that contributed their time and insight to this study.

Visit the MSK Library to drop off Toys, Coats, and Food for New Yorkers in Need
The annual MSK Information Systems toy, coat and food drive has begun! Collection boxes are now available at the MSK Library (RRL), until Thursday, December 20.
Other MSK collection locations include:
- 633 3rd Avenue 2nd and 5th floors
- telecom area in Memorial (MB42)
- data centers at Lyndhurst and Monmouth
Please participate in any way that you can. All collected items will be distributed to organizations in Queens, Long Island and New Jersey.
If you prefer to make a financial donation, please see Cynthia Hutchinson (633/5th), Lisa Vreeland (MB38), Donna Gibson (RRL 105), Mercedes Vila (LDC/MDC) or Karmen Katz (633/2nd)—all funds will be used to buy food for the drive.
All non-perishable food is welcome—please check the dates to make sure that all food is healthy and usable. Coats should be new, or used but in good, wearable condition. And finally, toys should be new and unwrapped.
Alternatively, please consider giving to a charity of your choice.
Thanks in advance for your thoughtful participation and a very Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays to all!
