Integrated Academic Student Support Services At Loyola University: The Library As A Resource Clearinghouse, Elizabeth Orgeron

E-JASL: Electronic Journal of Academic and Special Librarianship (1999-2009, Volumes 1-10)

Testing The Design Of A Library Information Gateway, W. Bede Mitchell, Laura B. Davidson, Rebecca Ziegler, Ann Viles

University Libraries: Faculty Publications

Previous efforts to improve these library sites had involved the pooling of criticisms from the librarians and users, and then a small group of library faculty and staff would attempt to create new designs that avoided the weaknesses of the old designs.
