The WJ site design refresh process continues apace; this week we are settling some of the big questions and turning them into visual form.

Of course the Biggest Question on any site is “what goes on the home page?” And here’s what we’re thinking…

I. Three primary user activities:

- Browse Library Resources (READ)
- Take Online Courses (LEARN)
- Participate in the WJ Community (SHARE)

II. Basic functionality:
-Search
-Login
-Signup for email notification

III. Access to user communities
- Rural LIbraries
- Spanish Language Outreach
- Newcomers to WJ
- WebJunction Partners

IV. Fresh content and news
BlogJunction feed (on the home page! wow!)
Featured Content
WebJunction Member spotlight (on the home page! wow!)

All this is getting alchemically fricasseed, as we speak, into a tidy, elegant, well-organized visual layout that will delicately balance ease of use, vivacity, and completeness. We are wrapping up our wireframes this week and turning them into graphical mockups next week. We can’t wait to show them to you!
