Homepage incorporates a clear grid of resources, delineated by audience and purpose
Support Options present easy paths for contacting consultants in the correct manner
Tutorials provide quick access to just-in-time training by category
Maker Spaces are mapped out to show the resources available outside Maker Commons that leverage similar skills
Individual Technologies are spotlighted so that users know how to get access to specific resources in the wider Commons
Audience-specific resources like the Faculty page help pair down the site and organize materials for different users
