Webpages are becoming the foremost point of contact with library patrons
and users. Thus, information professionals must have the tools to create
attractive and effective websites. Dreamweaver is a powerful web editor
that gives you the tools to build sophisticated interactive sites with ease.

Level 1 will cover the basics of getting started with Dreamweaver.
Topics will include page properties, text editing, inserting images,
browser preview, text and image links, page and site links, and e-mail
links.

Level 2 will explore more sophisticated possibilities for your webpages
including tables, frames, templates, image maps, navigation bars,
animated rollovers, and site builder.
