WIG’s primary objective is to ensure the Libraries’ web presence facilitates a successful user experience. As an oversight group, WIG provides a strategic vision for the Libraries’ web interfaces and plans future interface development and the adoption of new web technologies. WIG serves as a single point of entry for all web interface project proposals.
Additionally, WIG is empowered to make decisions on proposed enhancements to existing interfaces and to develop appropriate strategies for incorporating changes in the most effective manner. It is expected that WIG will appoint an implementation team (WIGIT) to assess and prioritize proposed changes; however, it is WIG’s responsibility to ensure the process for evaluating and prioritizing web interface changes is transparent and effective. WIG also ensures that needs assessment and other evaluative activities inform development. Finally, WIG is charged with communicating their work broadly and in a timely manner.
