Like many Polaris libraries, the Ames catalog features a few content carousels based on booklists compiled manually by library staff. Ames has done something unique. They’ve put a mechanism in place which creates a booklist automatically. The list (and therefore the content carousel) updates dynamically as items are added to and removed from a specific shelf location (“staff picks”).
Baltimore County’s catalog represents a very high level of careful customization. The layout has been modified to include a custom header and footer. The navigation mechanism in the header offers the same effective “drop down” behavior they employ on the BCPL home page.
Barrington’s PowerPAC boasts a very simple and attractive elegance – a design consistent with their overall web presence. BPL is one of the best examples of a library which has branded its PowerPAC to match its over all web presence.
Bartlesville has a very attractive PowerPAC where they’ve made great use of dashboards and carousels. The site has been “skinned” to look very much like the library home page and there’s great cohesiveness between the two.
