May 3 | Web Analytics Pilot and FOLIO eUsage App | Recording on Warpwire (NetID req'd) | UNC SILS Master's Practicum Project: A Web Analytics Pilot at DUL Our team of five UNC MSIS students worked with the AUXS team at DUL to run a pilot test of Matomo, a privacy-focused, open-source alternative to Google Analytics. The purpose was to evaluate the feasibility of decoupling from the Google ecosystem to better meet DUL's organizational values and commitments to user privacy. Through a collaborative and agile process, we implemented Matomo on DUL servers, tested technical processes on high- and low-traffic sites, engaged stakeholders, and provided a series of recommendations on how to best transition all 110 DUL websites to Matomo. Following an initial introduction from Sean Aery, our project sponsor, our team give an overview of our work and findings from the last few months. | Slides |
