Abstract:

Libraries need to routinely redesign their Web sites, and using a database to manage the content will improve the process considerably. This case study describes how a Perl-driven database improved Web site organization and patron access, made subsequent revisions much easier, and allowed non-HTML savvy staff to update content.
