From Home Page to Home Site: Effective Web Resource Discovery at the ANU
Abstract One purpose of a home page is to give people access to a Web site. So how do you give diverse groups of people access to a collection of sites, containing disparate information provided by a decentralised organisation? Simple; you build a home site. This paper examines how The Australian National University was able to develop a site that makes resource discovery at the ANU much simpler for readers, and explains the “home site” design ideology which allowed us to do so.
