[WEB4LIB] Academic Web Pages

[Susan Acampora]

Hello All:

Having read the responses to Tami-Jo's question, it appears that most
libraries have a lot of autonomy in the development of their web sites.  I
wonder how many libraries are running and maintaining their own web servers
as opposed to having "full control access to the library web site" held on a
server maintained by the college's or university's MIS depts.

Would you share with me what you feel are the advantages/disadvantages of
whichever setup you use.

Thank you in advance.
