Database pages-
Carolyn Baber and Anne Turhollow will work on reviewing our current subject database pages and subject categories. Ellie will ask Sandy Neer to combine the alphabetical list of databases with the list of fulltext journals.

Changes to website-
We will spend some time exploring a new mode for presenting databases and also most subject guide content. This will likely be driven by a db back end, so we need to design the output before building anything.
- Marilyn Hall volunteered set up an ongoing ’sticky doc’ of problems, ideas, and websites we like. Team members will send their ideas to her.
- It was noted that all of the secondary navigation pages need revision. We will start with the “research” page and continue with the others. A “community” navigation page was suggested.
- The ‘hours’ page also needs revision to be more clear, since the Library building has somewhat complex hours. Team members should send ideas to Mark Lester, who will compile them and distribute before our next meeting.
- Marilyn suggested exploring a clustered format for presenting information. She will point team members towards some resources for more information.
- The various maps on our Website need to be reviewed for accuracy. Mark Lester noted that this may be addressed in another committee. It should still go on our list of things to address, and when we’re ready to do so, we can interface with that group.
