Fondren’s Web Team News

Fondren’s Web Team (Diane B., Debra K., Jane Z., Jean A., Lauren M., Sandi E., Jun L. and Jeff K.) saw the implementation of some major updates to the classic catalog go live on June 16th, 2014. These changes were the result of usability studies conducted with students and staff to make the catalog easier to understand and use. Denis G. and Mang S. modified the classic catalog to include an easy to use button bar, better information organization/layout and straightforward terminology.

This summer the Web Team is putting together a plan for the next version of the Fondren Library website. Drupal has been chosen as the content management system and the team is currently evaluating peer institutions for ideas on organizing the site and finding new features and functions to include. The Web Team would love your input at these early planning stages. Please feel free to share your comments/concerns with this brief survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/fondrenweb
