Our website is built on .NET and we use Oracle to store staff info. https://library.umkc.edu/staff-directory Buddy Pennington Head of Library Systems & Technology (Librarian III) Miller Nichols Library University of Missouri--Kansas City -----Original Message----- From: Code for Libraries <[log in to unmask]> On Behalf Of Sean Aery Sent: Thursday, April 4, 2019 3:13 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [CODE4LIB] tools in use for staff directory applications? Hello Code4Lib, At Duke University Libraries, we are planning to design/develop a new staff directory application this spring. It seems like this would be a fairly common area of need, but there don't appear to be any widely-adopted solutions out there. So we're interested in learning more about what our peers (y'all) do to power their staff directories. For some added context, we use Drupal 7 for our website and a growing percentage of the applications we support use Ruby on Rails. We don't have much in-house experience with JS frameworks like Vue or React. Whatever we use to build the directory, it should be able to represent people (with photo, contact info, bio, etc.), display a browsable hierarchy of organizational units, and be widely discoverable and accessible. Does anyone have a solution they like for their staff directory? What tooling do you use and why? Any words of advice you could share?
