Changes to the Libraries' Homepage

Information for Faculty and Graduate Students Now Easier to Find

During the summer, the Libraries developed a new homepage (best viewed using Internet Explorer or Netscape 7.1 browsers). And there's more: coming soon, a new version of the homepage for those using older browsers (Netscape version 4 or earlier), as well as a version that will be readable by voice transcription software.

An important goal of the new homepage was to increase the ease with which different groups, especially faculty and graduate students, can find information pertaining especially to them. On the right-hand panel of the Libraries home page (http://www.library.yorku.ca), there are now headings for undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty, and there will soon be one as well for (non-York) community members.

The aim of these pages is to group information that is relevant to faculty and graduate students so that it's only a click away. So, while much of the information on these index pages can also be found under each of the main headings on the home page, it's grouped together on the faculty and graduate students' page for easy reference. Over time, more specialized content for each of these groups will be developed and expanded for these "user" pages.
