Comments Off on Library Website Update Delayed

By Scott Pfitzinger, August 1, 2005 9:09 am

For those of you who haven’t heard yet, the move of the library
website to the new Content Management System has been delayed. Due to
circumstances beyond our control, we will be waiting until January 2006
to release the new design of the library website, which will use the
Content Management System that all of the Butler websites will be
moving to.

For this fall, we will be merely making some minor adjustments to
the existing website and adding links to the blog (DawgBlog) and the
wiki (Butler_WikiRef). Your “normal ways” of getting to things on the
website will not be changing.

Thank you for your patience and your feedback.

Comments Off on Subject Resource Guide Updates

By Scott Pfitzinger, July 13, 2005 10:06 am

Librarians –

I’m going
to set Friday August 12 as the deadline for all changes/editions to the Subject
Resource Guides (print and online).

This year
my completion of the updates is tied to the new content management system® and
our new web presence.  So, hopefully
these projects will be resolved soon. 

However,
due to the uncertainty that surrounds these projects, there is a small chance
that everything will not be updated before the semester starts. If this is the
case I’ll likely work on those SRGs that are used by librarians for instruction
and then update the rest.

If you have
any changes/editions, etc., please get them to me by August 12 in your preferred
format (i.e., print, electronic).

Thanks!

Brad

This blog is for library staff only. It’s a place for us to
communicate as needed, but without the public accessing the contents.
We will soon have subcategories set up, so we can organize the posts by
topic within this secure environment.
