Office of Web Technologies and Content Coordination

Web Technologies and Content Coordination (WTCC) is part of the Office of Services. WTCC is staffed by Robert Slater (Web Technologies and Content Coordinator) and Camilla Fulton (Assistant Web Technologies and Content Coordinator). Our office is here to provide a central location for the discussion, coordination, and implementation of library web services and resources. Some of our primary duties include;

Providing training and support for the library CMS (Content Management System) and its associated authoring environment (tinyMCE).
Performing regular usability testing of the library gateway and web sites.
Maintaining the WCCT web site with the most recent news regarding the library web site and web services.
Working closely with the Office of Information Technology Planning and Policy and its related offices and programs to make the entire process of how the library web site is managed more transparent and participatory.

The WTCC works closely with the Web Content Working Group (successor to the Library Web Content Group), as well as with the Divisional Web Content Development Liaisons.

Web Technologies in use or development at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign Libraries

We are just beginning (as of Feburary 15, 2008) to systematically collect information about web technologies in use here atour libraries. Please feel free to email Robert Slater (slater@uiuc.edu) about any web technologies your library is using (or planning to use). If you'd rather add the information yourself, let us know that as well, and we'll send you an invite so that you can log in and edit this information yourself. This list is by no means exhaustive. If your are doing something new or unique that doesn't fit into this list, please let us know that too.
