I was expecting dueling banjos at the very least (joke)!

Also, the teaser looks a bit weird.

Otherwise, nice job.


Great Job

Amazon, your slideshow is a great showcase of library websites. The popularity of Drupal is certainly skyrocketing within libraries.

We just completed the West Linn Public Library website as part of a project to consolidate multiple websites and domains across the City of West Linn into one site. Drupal's site within a site capabilities are a great opportunity for organizations such as libraries, cities, and counties to save money by leveraging Drupal's power and role-based permissions to create a web framework that can be leveraged across multiple departments and sub-groups within a larger organization.

I think the popularity of Drupal within libraries and other government organizations will continue to grow at an exponential rate. We just reached agreement with a fairly large U.S. metropolitan county library to redesign their website within Drupal. We were told that the use of Drupal in our proposal was a distinguishing factor.

Drupal Rocks!

Typo for calexicolibrary.org

There is a small typo in the "Visit the website" graphic for the Camarena Memorial Library.

You have
"calexiocolibrary.org"

The site is actually
"calexicolibrary.org"

There is one extra o in there.

Typo for consortiumlibrary.org

The Consoritum Library web site is a .org, not a .com.

Sorry if I'm being a pain, i'm just trying to go to some of these sites to take a look at them.

I appreciate the work that went into creating this slide show.

Hi Kieran, Can I please get

Hi Kieran,

Can I please get ours added as well I did send an email after the first version came out but it might have got lost. It looks great I am amazed at how many Library sites are now using Drupal.

Nice job!

I just completed a huge project to integrate the web sites of 7 libraries on 4 different campuses onto one Drupal site. If you wouldn't mind adding us, that would be great!
