Update Policy?

[Leo Robert Klein]

Colleagues,

Does anyone have an update policy that they'd be willing to share with me?
We have a number of subject related pages and we're trying to work out an
acceptable frequency of updates plus who ultimately is responsible for this
kind of work.  This need not be limited to subject related pages by the way.

In any case, one model that's been proposed is that when something changes
-- say the availability of a service, systems staff are to search the
library's web site and come up with pages that need to be changed.  The
pages thus identified for revision would be farmed out to the respective
authors.  An alternative to this is to rely on the authors themselves to
initiate and complete the revisions.

I guess, ultimately this is a question of who's responsible for the accuracy
of material on the web site.

Has this been a consideration elsewhere?  I'd like to know.

Sincerely,

LEO
