Hi Erin, We’re in a similar boat here my our library. We run our own website (Drupal) and the university runs theirs. Luckily our university has purchased a product, OneTrust<https://www.onetrust.com/products/cookies/>, as a solution to GDPR and I should be rolling it out to our sites in the coming weeks. It adds a small banner to the bottom of the site where people can either accept all cookies or read more and toggle certain ones on/off. On the other sites that it’s implemented on it seems to work and look great.

Bonus: if so, are you also working to increase users' awareness of how their data is collected and used across the library, not just on the web? We're mulling a few options here. Our university-level IT group plans to launch a web click-through page before users from the EU can proceed to institutional websites, but our library servers don't fall under their control for this change. I think this could be an opportunity for us to increase privacy awareness for all our users, rather than just EU visitors, and I've seen a few non-library websites present this info to everyone in a way that isn't obtrusive or alarming. But, I haven't gotten a sense of whether this is something other library folks are considering as well. Thanks for anything you've got to share. -- Erin White Head, Digital Engagement, VCU Libraries<https://www.library.vcu.edu> (804) 827-3552 | [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> pronoun.is/she<http://pronoun.is/she> To maximize your use of LITA-L or to unsubscribe, see http://www.ala.org/lita/involve/email
