REU/SEU website Lessons learned, experiences and challenges Ildiko Pocza, Information Resources and Library Clerk, FAO REU
Why new REU site? • Common look and feel • Common technical support • Easy navigation • Easy maintenance All similarities with AgroWeb and ESCORENA are deliberate!
Advantages Challenges Separation of design, structure, and content Sharing best practices Access to style sheets and other elements in the “design” part Shared or separate file storages Good connectivity • Separation of design, structure, and content • Decentralized maintenance • Consistency • Cooperation
Design versus content • Existing sites (different technical solutions) • Do not recreate outdated content • Update your records • Disconnection of outdated pages or sites • New sites – starting from scratch • Exclude or hide pages with not yet available content (under construction, etc) • Collect and publish missing data
Suggestions • Clear communication of css and other useful design elements • Shared + separated storage folders • Share best practices • E-mail lists for different user groups
