The Customer Experience Point of View
The “Experience” of Customers is…
…a combination of the physical senses and perceptions, emotions, stated needs/requirements, and deeper expectations.
…50% physical and 50% emotional (at least).
…cumulative and assessed by customers are every single “point of contact” (called a customer touch-point).
…is largely forgettable and not very memorable.

Customer Touch-Point
A “customer touch-point” or “moment of truth” is where a library
customer “touches” or comes into contact with any aspect of the
facility or its services, programs, or people….directly or remotely.
