David is enthusiastic about our redesigned homepage for the Law Library of Congress (see how I stuck a link to it in already?). He provided a little background:
As part of the Law Library of Congress’s Law.gov project the Law Library began reviewing its web presence. In June of this year, we launched an updated look with features to make the website more user-friendly and better functioning.
The update continues with our revamped homepage. So what’s new?
- Less text heavy
- Easier to scan
- A highlights carousel
- The next section features two of the most used products: Congress.gov and the Guide to Law Online.
- Our @LawLibCongress Twitter stream is now in the right column.
- In the left column, there is now an image for In Custodia Legis instead of the last three blog posts.
- There is more detail for Additional Resources items we want to highlight.
As a bonus, you can now directly access the Law Library’s homepage through the short and easy to remember URL – Law.gov.
What do you think of our new look?
Did we achieve more with less?

Yes this is great! Nice job I look forward to using even more now.
I like! Clean and balanced yet content-rich; much info accessible without need to drill down. Nice job.
