73. Consider
Consider Your Users
•Should address the
needs of our users, not
ourselves.
•Think about what our
users need to do and
how your guide can help
them do that.
Make
Make sure your
Content is Reliable
and Up-to-Date
•Libraries are trusted
sources of information
for our users.
•Make sure that any
content we make
publicly available is as
accurate as possible.
Make
Make Information
Easier to Find
•Use short descriptive
titles, friendly URLs,
•Make sure that you've
assigned your guide to
the right Type and
Group.
•Use tags to create
keywords for your
guides to make them
easier to find.
Be
Be Organized and
Concise
•We want to give our
users everything they
could possible need, but
they are often better
served by content that is
concise and selective
rather than exhaustively
thorough.
•Organize your LibGuides
so users can easily scan
and navigate them.
74. • Which guides are most popular?
• Perhaps your patrons like the way it flows/looks.
Make future guides with this in mind.
• Are there links or any content that show a lot of
clicks?
• Perhaps they’re being recommended or they have
good descriptions, etc.
• Are there content items that have little or no clicks?
• Could these benefit from different placement on
the page or better descriptions?
• Or, maybe it’s a good idea to replace them with
new items that you have because people aren’t
interested in them.
