"C" is for Consistency: Accepting the CMS
Plaster Student Union Ballroom
We are the Penn State University Libraries: 20 campuses. 11 subject libraries. 20 departments. 73 Websites. 175 Web authors.
We are Binky Lush, Web developer, and Nikki Massaro Kauffman, technology training coordinator, both of the Department of Information Technologies & CMS implementation team members.
In our session we'll share how we leveraged creative marketing, education, diplomacy, and enforcement to bring the Penn State University Libraries intranet and Internet sites into a single CMS. We offer both the developer’s and the training coordinator’s perspectives on how to get buy-in on the consistent look, feel, and practices of a CMS when users have been accustomed to managing their own individual sites.
