Personalized Library Experience

The library now offers a personalized experience in One St. Thomas.

Attending feedback sessions, gathering response data, and receiving questions and comments from the St. Thomas community, it became clear that no single, one-page-fits-all experience could adequately serve all visitors to the library website. So we set out to design a page, and site, to present the most relevant resources and services to a student or faculty member based on their academic discipline and library needs.

Enter the Library Home page on One St. Thomas. Here we can focus on a personalized, relevant library experience.

We launched a page on the One St. Thomas Library Site that displays current loan items and library resources for enrolled or assigned courses. We hope to expand the information presented here in the future, tailored to the unique needs of a student, faculty, or staff member.

Before launch, we gathered feedback, and while we could not incorporate all the great ideas into the first iteration, we are looking at ways to incorporate them into future designs.

You can access the personalized page through the library’s public and One St. Thomas homepages.
