Important features a library website must have, in my opinion

Not criticising. Just working.

---

A catalogue would be a good start. A library wouldn't be able to function without a catalogue that patrons can access at home. Also, without a catalogue, patrons wouldn't be able to accurate browse quickly and efficiently nor be informed or whether the library has a certain item in stock or if they even have it at all.

An FAQ or contact details to a member of staff or the manager, preferably on the home page. Due to all the comparative essays I've had to write this term, which resulted in me having to analyse many library websites, I notice that the FAQs can be situated in the most bizarre places. Contact details should be repeated throughout every page.

A search bar. Self explanatory.

The library website should have an option to change the language for those of foreign background.

The rules of the library should have it's own segment on the website. I have analysed that aside from fines and fees, there are no other rules. For example, no eating or talking loudly, not devices, etc. maybe this may be common sense. But it should be a formality to have it there.

Locations and times. I don't think I need to explain this.

A calender of events. Preferably a calender compared to a blog as you have to search posts.

That's it for now~~~~.
