The Library Has That?: Using LibGuides to Promote Library Services
The Troy University Librarians provide services to students, staff, and faculty at four Alabama campuses and around the world. LibGuides were used to provide a centralized point of reference to answer recurring questions. They were also implemented to promote services and resources. This presentation will cover the two aforementioned guides as well as introduce others as time permits. The Services LibGuide allows faculty to view all of the library instructional offerings. Join us as we discuss these guides and how they have impacted our librarians and services to our patrons.
