More on Libguide
I gather you've wrestled with libguides in the past. I was introduced to them just last month, and I'd like to give it a go. I desperately need something flashier for the Off-Campus Students, but would also like to put something together for social work (my other constituency). The latter is a clean slate, and I'd like to get going with that first.
I have a few questions.
Is there a cost, and if free, what's the catch (advertising, valuable information stored off-site in a foreign country etc)?
In your experience is this best managed by the individual librarian, or by committee, for standardisation, ease of use? What has been the student response?
How's it different from a blog? I've been trying to put one together, but I don't like it at all. It is very limiting in so many ways.
learning curve? Time.
does it have usage stats collecting capabilities?
If I think of others, I'll let you know.
