This checklist is based on the four core criteria that knowledge management expert Emily DiLeo uses to evaluate UX research repositories. With 30+ targeted questions across these 4 key themes, it equips you to pinpoint whether your repository is driving insight or holding it back. Under each theme, you’ll find actionable prompts to help you assess usability, discoverability, engagement, and strategic value.

🔍 Findability: Does it ensure stakeholders can instantly locate the exact insights they need? No digging, no delays.

🔎 Discoverability: Does it expose the hidden value in your research by surfacing relevant insights users didn’t even know to search for?

🤝 User Engagement: Is the repository a go-to destination? Does it drive adoption with personalization and socialization?

📊 Analytics: Can it track usage, help prove impact, and show what's working—and what’s not?
