Like many academic libraries, the College of Charleston’s main library, Addlestone Library, contains a mix of spaces used by students, faculty, and staff from across campus, and library faculty and staff. The library had used LibCal, the popular library room booking software from Springshare, to efficiently manage study rooms and other patron-forward library spaces since 2013. Spaces reserved primarily by library staffers were booked using legacy Outlook calendars, a system that had become increasingly difficult to manage. By thoughtfully reorganizing the library’s LibCal Spaces module, the library incorporated all reservable library spaces into a single platform and streamlined the room booking process for all users. The project reduced staff time spent managing room bookings and setups, made it easier for staff to find information about what is going on in the library, and facilitated the relaunch of an events calendar on the library website.Keywords: LibCalevent calendarroom bookingreservationslibrary spaceslibrary websitelibrary staffersstaff training Disclosure statementThe author reports there are no competing interests to declare.Additional informationNotes on contributorsGretchen ScronceGretchen Scronce is a research and instruction librarian and virtual services coordinator for the College of Charleston Libraries.","PeriodicalId":54091,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Web Librarianship","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135591817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, many of these accessibility webpages do not meet the needs of users with disabilities. This article builds on the work of articles by Brunskill (2020) and Brunskill et al. (2021), which shared feedback on a library accessibility webpage gathered from users with disabilities, and created a guide for auditing the information found on library accessibility webpages. This article shares how the Montana State University Library used the feedback they gathered (“secondary feedback”) to improve our accessibility webpage. It is a best practice to get feedback directly from users with disabilities when developing or improving any accessibility resource, and this can take significant time and effort. Therefore, this article shares how libraries can use secondary feedback, such as a feedback-based content audit, as a good starting place to make improvements to their accessibility webpage before soliciting direct feedback from users with disabilities.","PeriodicalId":54091,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Web Librarianship","volume":"17 1","pages":"59 - 70"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46240955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
