About member web pages

A professional presence, even if you don't have a web site

We know many individual documentarians and organizations do not have their own web sites. A professional web page on the IDLS is a simple way to more provide detailed information to the public without the expense of your own web site

  • As a benefit of your membership you may create a free* professional web page
  • You control the content and can chose from four different page styles
  • You set up and maintain the page yourself, right on the IDLS

It is easiest to set up your page by creating the information in a word-processing programs, and then "cutting and pasting" it into the IDLS forms online
