Evaluation Criteria: Maintenance Aspects

A poorly maintained website is frustrating for end users. Displaying last year's calendar or outdated library hours reflects poorly on the school, library, or organization.

Maintenance Aspects Review

Consider the following questions as you are evaluating the website:

• Is the website regularly updated and revised?
• Is new content added (i.e., special events, new options) periodically?
• Is new content identified (i.e., new features, programs, facilities, resources, events)?
• Does the entry page reflect updates and revisions (i.e., list of "what's new", highlighted sections)?
• Are web page creation and revision dates indicated?
• Are up-to-date news and/or press releases (i.e., about us, special events, photographs) provided?
