Abstract
This paper addresses the design and evaluation of a Personal Digital Assistants' (PDAs) application to enhance the visit experience at the Museum/Library Stratis Eleftheriadis Teriade in Lesvos, Greece. The paper reviews the use of new technologies to enhance Museum visit experiences, and focuses on the use of PDAs for providing information and interpretation, keeping visitors interest and attention, as well as promoting various museum facilities. The paper describes the design process of the "Fables" application with the use of NaviPocket v. 2.4 by ORPHYS SYSTEMES (an authoring tool for PDA applications), includes an evaluation of the application and the authoring tool's effectiveness, and concludes with directions to further work on this area of research.
