Many congratulations! We use Plone and it seems to work well – but I only work with it on the authoring side. Many congratulations!

We played with Moodle as an Open Source CMS, but it didn't work out as our IT infastructure wasn't prepared to handle it. The other one I've heard about is Jupiter. I'm realigning the library site this summer as well, if you have any brilliant ideas please share. Congrats I suppose are in order.

My position is very similar and I enjoy the mix of duties. I love working with patrons, but sometimes it's nice to just sit in my office and do Web design stuff. The best part is when I get to do both the public service and tech side at once with online information literacy tutorials and the like. It's good to have techies with public service knowledge and public service librarians with tech knowledge. Good luck with the redesign! Congratulations!

That sounds like a fantastic opportunity! As for CMSs, I assume you mean some sort of learning/content management system? The only open-source one I'm vaguely familiar with is Moodle, but it seems to get pretty good reviews. (http://moodle.org/) Also, they might have ideas over at Maricopa (http://www.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/) where they seem to be pretty in tune with instructional technology. I assume the university already uses Blackboard or something similar? Yay! That sounds like a fantastic opportunity!
