New York University Libraries Selects OmniUpdate for Web Content Management

Market Wire, September, 2006

WebsiteASP, Inc., the leading provider of web content management solutions for higher education today announced that New York University Libraries has selected WebsiteASP's OmniUpdate solution to better maintain its critical web content.

"Our website is a portal," said Roddy Austin, Director for Library IT and Classroom Media Services at New York University Libraries. "We have our physical resources, our virtual resources, and all kinds of additional services and information that we provide to library patrons. Our library website is the portal into all those virtual services. It plays a critical role."

New York University Libraries is a large academic research library which services not only NYU students and faculty -- but is also the leader of a consortium in Manhattan which supports other organizations including but not limited to: Cooper Union, The New School, and the New York Historical Society.

The OmniUpdate solution was chosen by NYU because it matched what NYU Libraries had in mind as they evaluated solutions. "We selected OmniUpdate for its ease-of-use, workflow and functionality," noted Austin. "It's so simple to implement, it's intuitive and it makes sense. That's important for an institution of our size."

"As the gateway into a vast network of reference and research resources which is visited by millions a year, the NYU website is a great example of the need that academic libraries have for a content management solution," said Lance Merker, President and CEO of WebsiteASP, Inc. "We're really looking forward to working with NYU's librarians and staff, helping them reduce the complexity and time spent keeping the site fresh and accurate."
