WORKSHOP: A Spring Cleaning Sprint: Let's Tidy Up Our Websites

This in-person workshop will be live streamed and all handouts will be available in advance. The instructor will engage with the virtual audience after the workshop concludes.

Library websites tend to have a lot of content. Our homepages are often cluttered, and hidden in the depths of our websites are often outdated, duplicative, and overly complex web pages, many of which are irrelevant to website visitors. Let's learn some tools and techniques to reduce our content bloat and simplify our websites, making them more sustainable in the long term.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to:
  • Identify where your website needs the most clean up.
  • Prioritize content that matters most through top task surveys, analytics, and other data.
  • Identify web pages you can merge, archive, or delete.
  • Reduce content to its simplest and most sustainable form.
  • Make the case for why simpler is better.
