Web Design & Development

Designing academic web platforms

We provide consultations and accept project partnership proposals for web development and design projects, primarily working in WordPress and with open-source software known as plugins. O Past projects we’ve supported have included online journals, web companions to faculty monographs, digital language learning platforms, resource repositories for non-profits, and websites for research groups, among others.

We can help you mount your project through the following ways:

  • thinking through your content plan for building a website
  • consulting on the best platform and plugins for your project
  • discussing strategies for creating a website as part of a class or research
  • providing training materials for getting started with WordPress, HTML/CSS, and design basics
  • troubleshooting any issues that arise in your WordPress journey

Emory faculty, staff, and graduate students have access to a free instance of WordPress through Emory Scholarblogs initiative. These can be used for teaching, research, or public scholarship. You can request a Scholarblog site by using this link.

Atlanta Studies

Built in WordPress, Atlanta Studies is an open-access, multimedia web-based journal designed and published by the Emory Center for Digital Scholarship, on behalf of the Atlanta Studies Network. Atlanta Studies features innovative scholarship that takes advantage of the internet’s capabilities to deliver audio, video, images, text, and data to facilitate new ways of organizing and presenting research.

Lift Every Voice and Sing

In this online exhibition catalog, built in the online platform Manifold, Dorothy Moye presents and comments upon the textile art of Gwendolyn Ann Magee (1943–2011). This catalog accompanies the exhibition at the Gatewood Gallery of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (September 11–November 8, 2014). Magee’s extraordinary work includes a series of vivid, often harrowing, narrative quilts based on James Weldon Johnson’s anthem “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”

Through a Glass, Darkly

Built in the online platform Manifold, Through a Glass, Darkly: Allegory & Faith in Netherlandish Prints from Lucas van Leyden to Rembrandt is the first major exhibition to systematically consider the form, function, and meaning of allegorical prints produced in the Low Countries during the 16th and 17th centuries, and serves as the basis for an illustrated catalogue produced by curators Walter S. Melion, Asa Candler Griggs Professor of Art History and director of the Bill and Carol Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry at Emory University, and James Clifton, director of the Sarah Campbell Blaffer Foundation and curator of Renaissance and Baroque painting at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
