The Hawaii State Library System has once again been nationally
recognized as a winner of the 12th annual W3 Awards. It was also
recently honored as the recipient of the Best Government Website
Award from the Web Marketing Association for its user-centric,
innovative, and mobile-oriented website.
“The Hawaii State Library System’s website was chosen out of
more than 5,000 entries for these highly sought-after awards,” said
Hawaii State Librarian Stacey Aldrich. “To be recognized on a
national level for providing our citizens with a best-in-class
design and extreme usability is something we are very proud
of.”
The award-winning redesign of the library site has delivered a
new standard for library sites nationwide. Through collaborative
user-centered design workshops with library staff, design
strategies were uncovered that would appeal to fiercely loyal
library users and new users alike. The team used patrons’ personal
stories about how the library has impacted their lives to surface
and promote the library’s diverse services such as passports,
talking books for the visually impaired, quilt patterns, free
databases, free online classes, eBooks, thousands of events, and so
much more. The site was also re-organized to reflect how patrons
ask questions, making it easier for users to search and find the
items they seek. Existing social media imagery was also integrated
into the new visual design demonstrating that the library is safe,
friendly, community-driven, and a fun place.
The Hawaii State Public Library System website was created in
partnership with Hawaii Information Consortium, LLC, the official
Internet portal manager of eHawaii.gov.
