Library Website Design & Construction Best Practices
Wednesday March 12, 2025 9:00am - 4:30pm MDT
The library's website is a critical expression of the library's brand and a powerful influence on a patron's perception of the library.  Exploring contemporary design features, organization, and technologies, this workshop will cover best practices for delivering a unified, consistent design experience sitewide. We'll also cover strategies for updating and adding fresh content with minimal effort.

Special focus will be given to accessibility and responsiveness. What it means. What to do and not to do. And how to plan for it.

Finally, it will include a detailed look at Vega WebBuilder and how the best practices and accessible/responsive design elements can be readily incorporated with WebBuilder.

This workshop is suitable for any library, no matter what website platform or tools they use.

All day session. $100

Friday March 14, 2025 9:00am - 10:00am MDT
This session will explore how libraries are transforming the out-of-the-box experience of Vega Discover by leveraging its flexibility for deep customization. Presenters will showcase how they've modified Vega Discover Premium to enhance patron engagement and create more user-friendly interfaces.
