| Abstract | User experience (UX) is a relatively new field of research and practice. There have been several attempts to define the scope of UX and to explore if UX is measurable and how. Some studies have analyzed cultural differences in regards to UX. However, no studies have focused on Latin American / Spanish-speaking practitioners. We replicated a previous study, translated it into Spanish and added new questions about specific aspects of UX practice aimed to help us understand the background of the respondents. In this paper we present the results of our survey. We had 112 responses from Spanish speakers - practitioners, researchers and students, from industry and academia. Most respondents agreed that it is reasonable to measure UX and that the biggest challenges are costs and time. This exploratory research paves the way for future work to: (1) understand how cultural background and industry or research maturity may play a role in the state of the art of the practice of UX; (2) search for methods and tools to solve specific issues related to the Latin American context; (3) develop specific education and research programs aimed to take UX field of study and research to a more mature level. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
