The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines to web authors concerning the preferred design of web pages for the University of Sheffield. We aim to define a corporate style for University web pages. This framework will tie each page to the University of Sheffield and give a consistent layout that the reader can understand.
Familiar layouts encourage readers to stay longer at a site.
Within this framework individual authors will still have scope for innovative and distinctive pages. This section does not contain guidelines as such, but offers advice and suggestions that may help you with your web page design.
