About:
LibGuides is amazingly flexible, and you can do just about anything you want with it including using existing content.
This session will look at how to take existing content, whether it is a Word document, old wiki page, blog post or other and turn it into a useful usable LibGuide.
This session is limited to 40 participants. This session includes some homework and active discussion (via microphones) during the session. While we will look at features within LibGuides, this session will not include system set up. Check out the recordings of our training sessions on Admin and System Settings.
Discussion Topics:
- Guide organization
- Design considerations
- Content conversion
- Content editing and writing for the web
Make sure to complete the short homework questionnaire to improve active participation in the session.
