Quick Overview for Official Web Page Managers
Quick Definitions . . .
Official FSU web sites are defined as the web pages
of University divisions, colleges, departments, libraries, administrative
and service offices, and other official units and programs which are
controlled, operated, and maintained by University personnel in connection
with University business.
An official web page manager is a faculty or staff
member who has been assigned the responsibility of building and/or
maintaining a unit's web pages. Click

Web Space for Official Web Sites
University colleges, departments, offices, divisions, or other
units and programs will be granted space on FSU's official web server
www.frostburg.edu. Fill out the FSU
Web Publisher Agreement form to obtain web space (a directory). You
will receive an e-mail message when the directory has been set up. Follow
the instructions for publishing your web pages.
Required Software & Training
Macromedia Dreamweaver is the University-recommended web authoring
software. It is available at the University Bookstore. In addition, it
may be available at no charge to official web page managers of University
unit web sites. Contact the FSU
Webmaster (x3116) for details.
Hands-on classroom training on how to use the Dreamweaver software is
offered several times throughout the year by the Office of Human Resources.
In addition, the Developer
Resources page contains links to several online tutorials.
Design & Development Standards & Guidelines
The Web Advisory Group develops standards
for web page design and maintenance that are designed to facilitate information
distribution and enhance the appeal and usefulness of University web sites.
These standards and guidelines apply to all pages on official organizational
web sites of University units.
Web Page Review and Approval
Before a unit's web page "goes live," it must be reviewed
by the University's Web Advisory Group. This group, which includes the
FSU Webmaster and representatives from each University division, recognizes
the tremendous outreach potential of University web pages and, therefore,
reviews web documents and makes suggestions for improving them.
To request that the committee review information from your department,
complete the Request
for Web Site Review. You should allow up to 10 business days for
your review to be completed.
Assistance
The FSU Webmaster is available to assist and support all official
web page managers in building and managing their unit web pages.
