25 Problems on Library Websites (And How to Fix Them): Webinar (11/17/16) 


Thought that rotating carousel looked cool? What about that vendor widget? There are all kinds of issues with various features commonly found on library websites.

In this webinar, we'll take a look at 25 different ones, and break down not only the inherent problems your patrons may face because of them, but you'll learn ways to fix those issues, and even rate how hard those fixes are.

If you're worried about how friendly your site is for patrons, this session will give you some solid data and ideas to take back to administrators. 

Virtual Trainer: Laura Solomon

Laura Solomon, MCIW, MLS is the Library Services Manager for the Ohio Public Library Information Network and the former Web Applications Manager for the Cleveland Public Library. She has been doing web development and design for over fifteen years, in both public libraries and as an independent consultant. She also authored a statewide web site usability study in 2004 that evaluated the site of every public library in Ohio. She specializes in developing with Drupal, as well as in web code and accessibility standards. She is a 2010 Library Journal Mover & Shaker.  Her book Doing Social Media So It Matters:  A Librarian’s Guide was published in late 2010 and The Librarian’s Nitty-Gritty Guide to Social Media was published in 2013.  As a former children’s librarian, she enjoys bringing the “fun of technology” to audiences and in giving libraries the tools they need to better serve the virtual customer.
