The Music Library at Appalachian State University sets the home page on
public machines to the Library's Music page.
http://www.library.appstate.edu/music/  All of our pages below the library
home page are suppose to have the same menu in the top left corner and if
the page may scroll they are suppose to be buttons with the same links at
the bottom of the page and theirs has both.

Subject: [WEB4LIB] Branch academic library home pages?


I am wondering how common it is for university library
systems with branch libraries to have location-specific home
pages established for the public terminals in those branch
libraries. In other words, where a patron approaching a
terminal in the Medical Library sees a different library
home page from a patron using a terminal in the Music
Library.
I'd be particularly interested in knowing of cases where
this is done at mid-size institutions (15-20K enrollment)
with maybe 2-5 library locations.

Many thanks.
