Augmenting its vast digital image library, ArchNet includes a variety of tools and features that facilitate interaction and sharing between its users. A calendar, which is maintained by ArchNet members indicates events of interest to the architectural community such as surveys, competitions, fellowships, lectures, symposia, and calls for papers and participation in conferences. Discussion forums are integrated so that all website resources can be attached to specific forums. The website also features a careers section, listing jobs related to architecture, urban planning, education, and allied fields. The group workspaces facilitate collaborative project work through ArchNet.
Institutional sections highlight projects, research, courses and publications of ArchNet partners. The course syllabi page gives access to course information with a special emphasis on Islamic architecture course curricula. This information is contributed by ArchNet members and provides extensive reading, bibliographic information, and course outlines from around the world.

Famous quotes containing the words site and/or content:
“It is not menstrual blood per se which disturbs the imagination—unstanchable as that red flood may be—but rather the albumen in the blood, the uterine shreds, placental jellyfish of the female sea. This is the chthonian matrix from which we rose. We have an evolutionary revulsion from slime, our site of biologic origins. Every month, it is woman’s fate to face the abyss of time and being, the abyss which is herself.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“We do not content ourselves with the life we have in ourselves and in our being; we desire to live an imaginary life in the mind of others, and for this purpose we endeavor to shine. We labor unceasingly to adorn and preserve this imaginary existence and neglect the real.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
