New Year Brings New Look to Library Website

Sedona Public Library is pleased to announce the launch of our new website! The new site will be available today, and the web address for the home page will remain the same: www.sedonalibrary.org.

Our goal with the new website is to provide you with the same information and services as before while updating the site’s design; streamlining the site’s organization for easier access; and most importantly, offering a more mobile-friendly experience.

Here are a few highlights of the site’s new features:
 

• Mobile friendly: With the new site, you don’t have to strain your eyes trying to read the tiny text on your mobile device. Note that the Library’s catalog/My Account pages and the events calendar are external sites that the Library links to and do not automatically switch to a mobile version. You can still access a mobile-friendly events calendar by selecting Mobile Calendar under the Events menu.   
• Search box: Can’t find what you are looking for on the site? Try finding it by using the new search feature in the upper left corner.
• Movie schedule: The Monday Night Movie schedule, with film titles and descriptions, is now available on the Flicker Shack page, under the Events menu.
• Library News: Find out what’s new at the Library by regularly checking the Library News section of the home page.

 
Please take a few minutes to explore the site, and soon you will get used to it and find your favorite pages. Also, we are here to answer any questions you have, so don’t hesitate to ask a staff member for help.
 
Since the site is almost entirely new, some of your web browser bookmarks may change. However, bookmarks for many frequently used pages like your library account, the catalog, OverDrive, and the events calendar will stay the same. If you need assistance changing your bookmarks, please contact the reference desk.
 
If you have feedback about the new site, you can e-mail it to us using the Contact the Website Team form, accessible on the Contact page, under the About menu. We are interested in knowing about non-working features and anything you believe could improve your experience of using the site. Enjoy getting to know the new library website!

Sedona Public Library is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, supported by donations and grants. Your tax-deductible gifts fill a 20% budget gap after funding from Coconino and Yavapai Counties, the City of Sedona, and Friends of Sedona Library. We need and appreciate your support.

Please send your donations to Sedona Public Library, 3250 White Bear Road, Sedona, AZ 86336, or go to www.sedonalibrary.org, where you can give online.

Happy New Year from everyone at Sedona Public Library!
