About:

Are you getting ready to switch to the NEW LibGuides A-Z Database List? The new A-Z Database list has its own separate area for adding a header, footer, look and feel customizations, and custom code as LibGuides begins a gradual introduction of new behind-the-scenes architecture (Bootstrap 5). In this session, we'll walk through converting an existing HTML header using Bootstrap 3 to Bootstrap 5 code that will work with the new A-Z list. If you've created an HTML header using previous Springshare training sessions, your header uses Bootstrap 3 code.

If you are starting from scratch, you may be more interested in the session: Creating a Bootstrap 5 Header for the *NEW* LibGuides A-Z Database List. Just using a banner image? Attend Updating Your AZ Database Page sessions instead.

We'll cover:

  • Where to add custom code for the new A-Z Database List
  • Updating headers with a simple navigation bar
  • Updating headers with more complex navigation bars including dropdown menus

For this session, we recommend that you have basic familiarity with HTML and CSS.  Example code will be provided. For a refresher on CSS, view the recorded session Adding CSS to your LibGuides System.
