Using LibGuides to Communicate & Improve Accessibility
PPLD uses LibGuides to communicate and improve accessibility to resources and local information for both staff and patrons, including addressing common reference questions and service needs.
Additionally, we are using this product to create innovative ways for patrons to receive online instruction and access to library services; for example, Makerspace Badging. This product has also been used to save staff time and create internal training manuals. It has served as an excellent way for us to share information in an organized, user friendly format.
