We hoped that by listing all the venues from left to right along the top (rather than top to bottom, with Sudley right at the bottom, which was the case with the old site) that this would give all our venues equal prominence. But we’re gathering all our feedback together and if we get similar comments from other website visitors then we can look at this again.

We thought long and hard about this, but what we wanted to do was to avoid confusion about National Museums Liverpool (NML) being a ‘museum’ with its own events, rather than an organisation. This was happening with the old design, because of all the events being branded in the NML corporate style and linked to from the NML homepage. We also wanted to drive people to the individual venues because from previous feedback, the individual museums and galleries were what people were most familiar with and they wanted to go straight to the venue they were interested in visiting. Once you are on any venue’s ‘what’s on’ page, there are links on the left to all the other venue’s listings from there. But I understand your point about being able to see all the events at once – we just have so many that this becomes a rather giant and unwieldy list! We thought it better to keep them separate in each venue so it was easy to browse through the events and exhibitions. We’ll take your comments on board though and if we get a lot of feedback that is similar to yours, then we will look at this again. Thanks for taking the time to give us your thoughts!

Is it in a less obvious place? A search for ‘what’s on’ brought back over 5000 results. I also tried visiting the kids site and pressing ‘events’ – this took me directly back to the new main site home page where there is no events button/menu. I would like to know what is on at all venues on 14th September, then I’ll choose where to go. This is how I used to use the old site, rather than visit each different sub-site and individually search their variety of events/calendar systems. Can you tell me how to do this? This is a specific enquiry but I expect a lot of people will want to access the events information in this way. Thanks.

I hope you’ve been able to take a minute to fill in our survey – there’s a prize draw opportunity at the end! http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/X2GJT8C

The links are clear and the most important information (eg. opening times) is really obvious.
