JIBC selects vendors and CMS for web project

JIBC is pleased to announce that Domain7 has been chosen in our request for proposals (RFP) process as the web vendor that will work on our web redesign project. Domain7 will implement Drupal as the web content management system (CMS) that will be used to build our website. Drupal will replace Dreamweaver and Contribute as the enterprise system that JIBC staff will use to edit and maintain our site.

We are also pleased to announce that Signals has been chosen in a parallel request for quotations (RFQ) process as the design vendor for the project.

Thank you to all JIBC staff and vendors who participated in our selection process.

Writing for the web workshop

Communications & Marketing will present a Writing for the Web workshop for JIBC staff involved in writing or editing content for the new website.

The workshop, to be given by Lori Bodin & Krista Lambert, will focus on:

• Creating content for the web versus content for print
• Techniques to make content more effective
• Using content templates and the style guide
• Hands-on writing practice

The workshop will take place Wednesday, July 21, and be repeated Monday, July 26 for those who can’t attend the first session. An additional session with the same content will likely be held in early August.
