The College's Web Publishing System, known as "EdWebs", is based in part on Adobe's Contribute.  With Contribute one can easily update and publish content to existing websites.  To edit a page with Contribute, you simply browse to the web page you want to edit, click on the "Edit" button, make the change you want to make, and then click on the "Publish" button.  This tool puts the power to edit web pages into the hands of those responsible for the content.

See Benefits of Edwebs for help in deciding if edwebs is best for your site.
