I managed to work on the site a little today, and it seems to be coming together. Any comments/thoughts on it all, please email me.
New/returning members
You may have noticed that things have changed. This was rather forced upon me, and therefore upon you (the whole site crashed and burned on Saturday, and I’ve had to start over with many things).
Getting into the site and its resources
Click on Register, complete the simple info, confirm your email address, and you can login. Once logged in, you’ll see a link appear to the Resources, which takes you to the normal trusty pages.
Bigger and Better
The site, an an ironic result of all this, will be much more powerful. By registering through the site, we all become part of a live community of classicists, a safe network designed solely for Classics teachers. Many more options will become available. For example, you can create your very own blog within the site (say, for your department), you can create groups for a particular specialism (say, a consortium of local schools, colleagues with a particular subject interest, or a working group to build resources for a particular topic), you can create discussion threads in forums, appeal to members for resources, and much more.
It’s the first time, in the history of The Classics Library, where we can do all of these things easily within one site.
We’re getting there!
