- Not crazy about the color scheme but layout is pretty clean (if our staff monitors were larger it would look better)
- Links in column on left don’t go to same place as links in center – center goes to list of databases and websites (and sometimes suggested books), but left goes to more subcategories (I kind of like the center options better, going straight to the links intead of more lists)
- Has list of full-text magazines/journals/newspapers as well as a search for titles
- Puts Webfeat search on left as drop-down
- Also, Webfeat is called Article Searcher, a user-friendly term
- Has sign-in screens so non-patrons can’t get very far in terms of seeing how the entire process works
- Database categories are all on one page, no extra clicking to find the subjects – database names are in Java so they appear quickly and you don’t have to take yet another click to get to the database
- Databases suitable for kids and teens are listed on the Kids and Teens pages under “Homework” (good label, since “databases” is more of a library term than an end-user term)
