By Subject Pages

The links from the Find... By Subject page: need to go to a page that provides basic information and links designed for a user who is new to the discipline. This may be the current home page for the subject specialty library or another page that already exists on the subject specialty library's site, or a new page designed for this purpose.

Essential information, or links to it, should all be visible on the first screen without scrolling: (A horizontal table of contents may help)

Exact name of the subject prominently displayed. For example, the subject page for "Natural Resources" needs to go to a page with the words "Natural Resources" prominently displayed. If library has several subjects, each must be prominently displayed, or have individual pages.
About <Subject>: Brief description of the subject as constituted at UCB (not a full collection description). Limit to 1 short paragraph. May include a link to more information. The words "About <Subject>" are required.
Find Books: (Links to the library catalogs). The words "Find Books" are required.
Find Articles: (Links to lists of relevant article databases). The words "Find Articles" are required
