I Feel Pretty: Amazing SFX Menu Do-overs

A couple years back, David Walker of Cal State created a small video-tutorial about rethinking the SFX menu, ugly toad that it is out of the box.

It's amazing how a small video could inspire so much. Walker, interviewed a couple weeks ago by one of Centered Librarian's cub reporters, updated CL on progress:

"About half of our Cal State campuses now have it in production, and some other universities have implemented it as well. Ex Libris even inquired about making it the default SFX interface, but not sure what will become of that."

Here are some examples. Food for thought!
