Yes! The Rutgers University Libraries Web Board is charged with a huge task: redesigning the www.libraries.rutgers.edu website. Since that site is the gateway into much of what our libraries have to offer, it belongs to the entire RUL community. Hence, the redesign, too, has to be a community effort.

We invite all Librarians and Staff to come forward with their best ideas, comments, constructive criticism, or just a few good words and join us in this effort. We promise to look at every comment, answer any question (we can), and incorporate the best ideas into the new site. We want it to become a shared success.

The Web Board meets biweekly or, later, monthly. Feel free to attend as a guest or as an invited “grassroots” idea owner and join the discussion. Better yet, join us in the work as the Board is not working behind closed doors or in a vacuum: it has set up over a dozen teams with several dozen members to work out the details. We want to work with you, too!

On this site you will be able to find the documents governing the entire process: the mission, the research, the vision, the project plan, the calendar, and, later, the design drafts. Be a partner in making the leap to a new and ever more useful site!
