The Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) is delighted to share a Korean translation of its Technology Watch Guidance Note Understanding user needs: a case study from the National Library of Scotland.

Now available in Korean thanks to translators at the National Library of Korea, this case study is a real-world example of how understanding user needs has been approached at one institution, with constraints of time, expertise and resource. It demonstrates how a rich seam of information on user needs can be gathered through a variety of interactions with users and how this can help inform future activities and decision making.
