school summer reading lists button is nice they have free music downloads! (Freegal) Block at bottom details entire site if people figure out to scroll down grey color scheme is uninspiring
From a reference staff member: Don't like the dark background. I was also confused by the coming soon categories. There's no info about when these items will be available but patrons can request them.
From a reference staff member: The background colors of black and gray are too dreary. Liked photographs of each branch and symbols for the services offered. Liked patron survey results posted and forthcoming books, movies, and music.
Didn't like the item descriptions popping up when I was scrolling across the page to another link. It was just annoying. Colors feel funereal.
Staff comments: I liked how the arapahoelibraries.org site had the same navigation that was easy to understand at the bottom of all of their pages so patrons could easily link without going back to a home page.
Very prominent focus on accessing library materials. Everything else is there but much more understated
