Abstract

This seminar will look at a number of perspectives involved in the management of an institutional Web presence using a Web content management system. The seminar is split into three main parts.

In the first we will outline the features and functionality expected from such systems, what they do and do not offer, and the important role of the system in the University of Hull deployment of its digital campus.

The second part will look at methods of evaluation, specifically focusing on criteria and available solutions when considering the selection of a CMS.

In the third part, we will review technical, political, and cultural lessons learned from the campus-wide deployment at Hull over the past two years of HyperContent, an open source content management system.
