Re: Staff Directory on Web

Afternoon,

We have talked about the first two items.  We would have departments available on the web site (department email, 
phone, office number).  We would need to establish emails for all departments with communication plans (who is 
monitoring?  who has access? who is primary?).  We have not discussed item three, but if they have a department 
contact, communications could be initiated.

For those of you who have closed off faculty/staff directories (or moved to requiring authentication to see them), I'd 
be interested in hearing how you provide for boot-strapping contact needs like:

  *   Community members/press/others wanting to ask an expert
  *   Faculty of other institutions wanting to initiate collaboration
  *   Potential grad students wanting to explore faculty advisors

Thanks,
Steve

We did have our directory available publicly at one time but since then we require authentication to view and search. 
We did this for the obvious reasons as you have noted.

Afternoon,

There is a little debate going here on IF our directory of employees (name, number, email, department) should be 
available to the web.  One side looks at it as we are being transparent, and it is good "marketing".  The other side is 
looking at it like we are releasing to much information (making it easier for a hacker to find targets) and making it 
easy for SPAMers.  Has anybody had this conversation before?  Anybody have an article that says one or the other?

As I search around, I'm seeing colleges/universities that go both ways.
