Please include:
General comment about overall appearance.
Describe the design elements that you like.
Describe the functionality features that you like.
like the prominence of ebooks tab as it is probably used a lot, like local history links, grid pattern and simple consistent fonts keep info from overwhelming black tabs with rainbow fonts add some personality like ability to search catalog, site, or articles San Jose Public Library always clearly at top of page
Grid format is nice. Don't like the yellow. Like that in locations when you click on a library the contact info, hours etc are there AND below is the list of activities for that library.
From a reference staff member: Don’t like the layout at all—all that white space & everything crowded in the center. Half of the subject headings are obscured and there are abbreviated tabs like Books & Med instead of Books & Media. It bothers me.
From a reference staff member: Pages are very long and too much scrolling is necessary. Liked downloads category, instructional video for eBook downloading.

ReplyDeleteSite Map’s the strongest Feature. Color Coding works well there. Home page itself doesn’t work for me.
