The document discusses using Drupal Views to create a dynamic employee directory. It outlines requirements such as displaying employee pictures and names in a consistent size, linking to individual profile pages, allowing office assistants to upload new employee profiles, and paginating listings of more than 12 employees. As an example, it links to the staff directory on the Lullabot website. The goal is to build an employee directory in Drupal that meets these requirements.

• Office assistant user role should be able to
upload new staff member items
• Maximum 3 member items should be displayed
in a row, maximum 12 should be displayed on a
page, if more than 12 members are added, a
pager appears to go to other pages
