Website Construction (CMS-Based)

Project details

What we need
  • Development of a new website using a Content Management System (CMS)
  • Training to ensure Organization's staff members can update content and manage the site post-launch
  • Note: This project is for a website built with a Content Management System (CMS), such as Wordpress, Squarespace, Joomla, Drupal, or Weebly . A CMS-based website can be maintained and updated easily (no coding required!)
Additional details

Create a registration page for library patrons to use to sign up for Summer Reading programs.

What we have in place
  • We currently have Wordpress, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have EVANCE, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $16,822 , allowing us to put funds towards purchase of additional programming. (This project will not take the full amount of hours mentioned, so our savings would not be that much)

It will keep us more organized during our busy Summer Reading time and hopefully we can implement it year round for all our program registrations. It will make the library more easy to use for patrons and help us to remind them of events.
