So we think it's hard to design a university homepage? Imagine if your potential audience included the entire country plus quite a large chunk of the rest of the world? And you had plenty of good content to showcase?
You may remember we mentioned the new online strategy of the BBC and the accompanying competition being run to redesign their homepage. Entries have started coming in and you can check them out in a gallery. It is interesting the different approaches taken by people (I was particularly tickled with one person's idea that people should search for things, not be given content up-front. I think s/he needs to put a little more thought into this design...)

Thanks for sharing this link. As you say, it's interesting to get an insight into people's thoughts on design and usability. Good food for thought whilst we consider the redesign of the library web site ;-)

No worries Marie-Laure. Too many examples are never enough when one is redesigning...
