The Athens Regional Library System came to us with some common concerns: Despite their best efforts, their existing website structure and the underlying systems supporting it were no longer keeping pace with their communication needs; The amount of content, much of it duplicated, had become challenging to manage; And the design and overall user experience no longer represented the dynamic community resource that they truly were.
By leveraging our experience with websites of this size and scope, we knew right away that a successful redesign hinged on developing the right foundational structure. Working to understand and best support the most common needs of the varied audiences was crucial to setting the stage for a well-organized, intuitive, and engaging site built to serve the entire library system community for many years.
