When I became digital resources and reference/ instruction librarian in 1999 at the Hekman Library at Calvin College and Calvin Theological Seminary, one of my first tasks was to redesign the library39。s Web site. Like many of you who maintain Web links to library resources, I quickly learned that offering access to a large number of resources from an even larger number of static Web pages can never really be described as efficient or professionally fulfilling. In recent years, many libraries have created dynamic Web sites that are databasedriven, that is, maintained and populated with content stored within what can be loosely termed a content management system (CMS). In 2020, Jed Koops, the Hekman Library systems programmer, and I created a CMS called Hobbes (library staff liked the play on the words Calvin and Hobbes). Since then, Hobbes has grown into a hybrid of CMS and intra to include not only Web site content, but also a variety of internal tools used by librarians to help them plete some of their daily tasks. Hekman is a small academic library serving more than 4,200 students, 370 faculty, and many munity patrons. The majority of the library39。s 25 academic departments. Access to all library resources is provided through the online catalog (Sirsi), a digital media archive (Sirsi), and our Web site, the Hekman Digital Library (HDL). Since its creation in 1997, the HDL has grown from a mundane list of links and library information to the primary point of access to all of the library39。s existing online directory By authenticating through a continually updated college database of login names and passwords, we did not need to create our own. Users added to the Hobbes environment have immediate access without needing to remember yet another ID and password. As a CMS, I initially envisioned Hobbes as a tool to help me to efficiently manage the library39。s internal munication needs as well. Over the course of 2 years, we added tools as they were thought of and created, and placed them according to their function under tabs that are strung along the top of the Hobbes environment (see Figure 1). Each librarian is given access to the tabs and tools she needs based on her profile within Hobbes. Here I will describe each tab and some of the major tools (or tables) placed within it. With each description, I have included our label in parentheses to help you pare what you are reading to the screen shots. To see how some of Hobbes39。ll briefly explain a number of these before moving on to the functions of the other tabs. Databases (TofDbs): Each research database record stored in a table of databases (Tombs) contains the following fields that allow the resources to be displayed on the HDL in a variety of helpful ways: AlphabeticalBased on the first letter。s fulltext content, such as journal or newspaper articles, ebooks, or even primary source historical documents VendorMost useful for our librarians SubjectIn our case, based on the college39。s academic departments each have an assigned library liaison. One role of the liaison is to maintain a Web page that highlights library resources that are important to the department, such as databases, microform sets, and reference sets. Each liaison can add Web resources that she considers important for her departments. Staff (Staff): In addition to displaying staff information on the HDL, creating a table of staff members allows each of the librarians to be authenticated into Hobbes. Like Tombs records, the staff record contains many fields that allow them to be used in a variety of ways: Login name (based on the college39。s AZ Index, so that users can look for, say, the cataloging librarian Birthday (so we all know when to expect treats!)
