Why SharePoint for the joint San Jose Public and State University Library?
Because of the two organizations, communication was difficult
Management wanted to increase institutional communication and collaboration
Various web 2.0 services were everywhere (each with their own interface and support needs)
Intranet updates took time and taxed the Web Team
![Page 11: SharePoint for Libraries: Streamlining Your Intranet Management Sarah Houghton-Jan Digital Futures Manager, San Jose Public Library Shannon Staley Digital](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022110100/56649dbf5503460f94ab3e7f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Designing Our Library's SharePoint presence
Involving IT, Web Team and organizational input Piloting several small sites Evaluating the experience Integrating pilot sites into “new” permanent sites
referenced from the intranet to ensure one port of entry
Utilizing information architecture of the intranet to avoid disparate sites with no organization
Opening up site requests to the rest of the staff

Not All Intranet Content Requires SharePoint for Content Management
We developed criteria for utilizing SharePoint through the intranet:
Needs to be updated frequently Requires group collaboration Other specialized information sharing

Accessing SharePoint
Windows Account database Users can access sites through their own
Windows login information (seamless from their own computers, manual login elsewhere)
No need to create a new database of users or new usernames and passwords!
Home access requires different URLs
