Despite the indispensable technological shifts, the success of a website is anchored on effectiveness, perception, valuableness, satisfaction, reliability, and efficiency dimensions. In this research, heuristic evaluation enabled to assess the primary content elements on academic library websites homepages. The heuristic method's findings were compared to taskbased usability tests. Usability heuristics results correlate to task-based usability testing findings by supplementing measurement of users' expectations in multifaceted magnitudes. Cultural and one's national origin determines students' assessment and usability of universities' libraries' websites to a great deal. Universities can benefit from optimized operational performance by upholding underlying principles of heuristic model to achieve exceptional outcomes. This study derives ultimate satisfactory consciousness that heuristic evaluation's principles guide to design an academic library's website that complements efficiency and satisfaction.

Abstract:The purpose of this paper is to examine the scholarly peer-reviewed publications relating to social media objectives and challenges of law libraries. The methodology is that of a systematic literature review. The studies included in this systematic literature review show that the social media objectives of law libraries are: promoting and marketing resources and services, supporting legal research teaching and tutorials, and providing reference services.
