Web Services

The Internet is not the only place for Web pages, you find them on inTRAnets, on laptops for in-class demonstrations, on interactive DVD's and much more. With today's techology and software resources, anyone can build a Web page - that works! However, to build a user-friendly, accessible or dynamically generated site, you need help. And that is where we come in. We can help you to get set-up, to discuss design, layout, develop, program and maintainance of your Web site. We will help you as much or as little as you want. Simply contact us via by email: cohWebHelp@osu.edu or by phone: 614-292-8662.

(Note: Word(s) in magenta are definition links, use them to learn the definition of those words. Regular links in red will take you to other Web page locations to find additional information.)

We use databases to provide accuracy, consistency and flexibility on the College of Humanities Web site. The databases that we create can also be accessed by departments for use on their Web sites. But before you can use a database, you need to have an understanding of them.
