The Institutional Web Management Workshop (UK)

Funnelback and Squiz are sponsoring the Institutional Web Management Workshop 2011 at the University of Reading from Tuesday 26th to Wednesday 27th July 2011.

The IWMW event provides an opportunity for those involved in the provision of institutional Web services to hear about institutional case studies, national initiatives and emerging technologies and to actively participate in a number of parallel sessions.

Funnelback's David Hawking will be presenting a plenary session: Search Engines in the fight against Institutional Impecuniousness. The GFC universities have been trying to maintain business as usual despite substantial reductions in financial means. This talk will cover the ways in which search and publication technologies can be used to positively contribute to this challenge by (A) improving efficiency in delivery of services and (B) being more effective in attracting income.
