  • Occasional Features

    From time to time the DLL will publish editorials that will highlight issues suggested by patterns that emerge in the DLL's HBCU databases.
  • Weekly Features

    -- At the end of each week the DLL's staff will review the Websites of the 102 officially designated HBCU's looking for new events and announcements related to the HBCUs' progress in teaching, research, community serviceand/or support for k-12 schools. The staff will then post headlines summarizing these news items on the Gateway's and pages, together with hyperlinks to the full descriptions of these news items on the HBCUs' Websites.

    -- The DLL's staff will review the news items submitted by our readers as soon as we receive them. The staff will merely verify that the submitted URLs really link back to full descriptions of the events and announcements on the pages of an HBCU's Website. The headlines for valid news items submitted will be posted on the Gateway within two or three days.

    -- The DLL staff will also conduct weekly reviews of the Web pages of the major HBCU associations (UNCF, NAFEO, Marshall, HBCU Library Alliance, etc), other academic organizations (e.g. EDUCAUSE), federal funding agencies, etc. Headlines linked to the full descriptions of significant events and announcements will be posted as soon as possible.
