Stanford Web Resources Offer Online Access to Stanford Report and Help for Webmasters
by Scott Stocker
The Office of University Communications, which maintains Stanford's main web site now offers online access to the Stanford Report, as well as resources and a webmasters group for Stanford web designers and webmasters.
Stanford Report Access
Stanford Report readers can take advantage of two new options to access the newspaper's content online: via email subscription and via RSS feed. Receive a free weekly email notification of all the latest headlines by subscribing to their email subscription list. To join, send an email to majordomo@lists.stanford.edu containing only the text "subscribe stanfordreport". RSS, or Really Simple Syndication allows readers to access headlines from the Stanford Report (as well as hundreds of other news outlets) using an RSS newsreader or RSS-enabled web browser, such as Firefox. To find out more and to access the Stanford Report RSS feed, visit http://news-service.stanford.edu/subscriptions.html.
SU Web Resources
University Communications offers a set of resources and style guidelines for webmasters of departmental or other official Stanford web sites. The "Stanford Web Guide" is available at http://www.stanford.edu/webguide and includes templates appropriate for creating a departmental web site, downloadable Stanford graphics, and a list of additional resources. The site also provides information about web site accessibility.
SU Webmasters Group
All departmental webmasters and web designers are also encouraged to join SU Webmasters. This group meets monthly to discuss issues of interest to the maintainers of University web sites. To join, send an email to majordomo@lists.stanford.edu with the text "subscribe su_webmasters".
