New Jersey State Library
The Challenge
The New Jersey State Library website had become complicated over time. Multiple databases, departments, and content sources all published separately, making it difficult for patrons to find what they needed.
Staff faced challenges managing user access and keeping information consistent across the library's many digital channels. There was no simple way to coordinate approvals or maintain accuracy as the site grew.
The Solution
Firedog rebuilt the site to bring everything together in one clear, structured solution. We started with user journey mapping to understand how visitors searched for programs, research tools, and statewide services.
The new platform connects multiple databases, introduces single sign on for staff, and gives teams a secure way to manage content across departments.
What we delivered
- A unified WordPress platform built for statewide needs
- Single sign on for secure access across all departments
- Structured categories and filters for improved discovery
- A streamlined approval workflow that keeps content accurate and consistent
The Outcome
The New Jersey State Library now has a unified, user friendly experience for both patrons and staff.
Visitors can easily find digital collections, training, and statewide programs through clear navigation and search.
Staff can publish confidently with consistent approvals and single sign on access, ensuring accuracy, security, and collaboration across the entire organization.
