LibGuides CMS: Creating a Kiosk with a LibGuide
9:00am - 10:00am (Eastern Time - US & Canada) change time zone
About:
Imagine a patron walks into the lobby of your library and finds a dedicated computer where they can search the catalog, book a study room, reserve time with a librarian, or even register for a library program. Navigation buttons on the page let the user toggle between different areas. Patrons won’t get lost -- even if the browser controls are hidden to prevent users from visiting other websites – because the navigation is always visible.
Learning Objectives:
- Determine what you want your kiosk to offer.
- Create a template for your kiosk guide.
- Note: Changing a template's layout requires modifying HTML code, so having some familiarity with HTML is important.
- Add Content.
- Learn how to integrate other Springshare Widgets into your kiosk like these from LibCal:
- Book a Librarian
- Reserve a Study Room
- Library Hours
