Rare Books and Manuscripts Website

What is it?

The Rare Books and Manuscripts department of the Indiana State Library was in need of a new design for their website. While the search function that contains the digital collections, Contentdm® cannot be changed, the aesthetics can be. This improvement would better serve patrons and researchers of the Indiana State Library by providing easily accessible digital collections to them. While the number of patrons who use this service is limited, the new web design is to entice others to be able to easily explore the digital collections.

Result

  • The newly applied design layout for this website has increased traffic. 

  • The bounce rate has decreased.
