vanderbi.lt link shortener

Have you seen the new vanderbi.lt shortened links appearing around the interwebs (especially on @VanderbiltU‘s Twitter account?) We recently launched a link shortening service for Vanderbilt: vanderbi.lt. Rather than using a generic shortener like bit.ly or ow.ly – we decided we’d like to have a branded solution that clearly shows that the content is from...... KEEP READING »

Disciplines and Majors database and site launched

A frequent request of prospective students and many across the campus was to have a centralized source of all disciplines and majors available for students at Vanderbilt. Rather than start from scratch, we approached the Vanderbilt Institutional Research Group (VIRG) to see if we could collaborate with them on creating such a tool. VIRG already...... KEEP READING »

AtoZ

A to Z launched with tagging, open submission

We changed the Site Index from a very, very, very long list of alphabetical links to more use-friendly way to find all the Vanderbilt sites. They’re still there in alphabetical order (hence, A-Z), but broken down by letter for quicker browsing. More significantly, they’re now also broken down by category. We can now tag a......
