A New Website for NDDIC
A new National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse (NDDIC) website will be launched in late winter 2003. The website will provide patients, families, and the public with a new doorway to information on digestive diseases and a bright new look.
Upcoming features of the new NDDIC site will include
- Easier-to-find information. Listings will be both alphabetical and by topic, making it simpler to find specific information.
- Improved navigation. A new top navigation tool will enable users to toggle between sections.
- Direct access to the new NIDDK Clearinghouses' Online Catalog and health information databases like the Combined Health Information Database (CHID).
While the look and architecture have been changed, the source documents are the same. The fact sheet content that people rely on is altered only when needed to keep it up to date.
The new NDDIC website will also include the customer satisfaction survey, so please plan to stop by to tell us what you think.
Accessing the new NDDIC site will be easy: simply go to www.digestive.niddk.nih.gov or digestive.niddk.nih.gov, or visit the NIDDK site (www.niddk.nih.gov) and click on "Health Information," then "Digestive Diseases."
The new NDDIC site is part of the NIDDK's new family of websites, which will also include new sites for diabetes and for kidney and urologic diseases. The new sites are being developed in a months-long process that includes in-depth usability testing, which resulted in the new user-based designs.
