Celebrating Fresh IR Redesigns to Align with Changing Institutional Branding

We want you to have a design that is professional, fresh, and aligned with changing institutional branding. Therefore, we offer free annual redesigns for every Digital Commons IR.

Digital Commons Consultant Alison B. described the satisfying redesign process at DigitalCommons@Fairfield: “Nina and Hayley, the head Fairfield administrators, were fantastic to work with – they approached the process with great thought and care, and even took the opportunity to do some repository spring cleaning: we revamped their sidebar links, updated their faculty and student content policies, and made sure the information in all of their static pages was up to date.”

We love the clean, modern look of Digital Commons@Fairfield:
