Exciting Website Changes Are Here!

I am so pleased that the Library’s website improvements, which make our site more user-friendly, are now live. Our staff has been working for some time with the City’s Web Team to reduce the clutter and place items you look for the most in easy to find locations. Searching the catalog is our # 1 hit, so we put the search box right at the top along with your account login. We added quick links to our most popular hits. Graphical news features highlight programs and services of special interest.

new user-friendly website.

We are receiving positive feedback from users like Lisa Schattman who wrote, “"Great job! So much better than the old site!!! Not only more attractive, but much easier to find what I'm looking for. Thanks, SDPL!" This is such a testament to what a fabulous job our eBranch Team and the City’s Web Team did in upgrading our site to make it more responsive to our user needs! 

Recently we updated our event calendar, which makes it easier to find events at a glance. Other online improvements are coming soon. Within the next month or so there will be an upgrade to our catalog, which will give it a more contemporary look, make searching more like Google, and highlight New York Times Best Sellers. The library is on the technologic move. Stay tuned for more exciting details.
