Proposed Changes to Home Page

Adding Search Boxes to the Home Page

Prompted by the Integrated Article Search Box from Ebsco on the E-Resources page, the Web Committee explored adding it to the Home Page. This necessitated revising the search box to the Library Catalog so that they would look somewhat alike. (Note: the search box is a widget from EbscoHost and is really an image so we had to do something similar for the catalog search box.) Sylvia Owens, Reference Facilitator, was consulted and her input incorporated into the draft page.

Resolution of links to the E-Resources Page

After much discussion and getting input from librarians and students, the Web Committee is proposing one (1) link from the sidebar menu heading (Articles & Research) to replace the current two (2) links: A-Z List of E-Resources and E-Resources by Subject.

We've played around with lots of wording and tentatively propose Articles & Reference.

The wording can be seen through the link above to the page with search boxes.
