Civil Rights Movement Research Guide Content Management System
As part of a group project in my Information Resources and Services class, we put together a Research Guide for undergraduate students at the University of Michigan studying the Civil Rights Movement in the U.S. in the 50s and 60s. Here's a screenshot of the main page:
After looking at several Content Management Systems for the project, we settled on WordPress for our CMS. I was responsible for the hosting, installation, configuration, and administration of the CMS. With input from my fellow group members I also chose the design and layout of the site and I was generally responsible for its appearance. Our group worked together on the information architecture for the site and the arrangement of the navigation bar and the menu structure.
Content-wise I the researched and wrote the Audiovisual section of the Research Guide, a screenshot of which is below.
