Using LibGuides to Enhance Library Services

The easy-to-use tools in Springshare’s LibGuides help you organise web pages, improve students’ research experience and learning, and offer an online community of librarians sharing their work and ideas. Editors Dobbs, Sittler, and Cook have recruited expert contributors to address specific applications, creating a one-stop reference. Readers will be able to create subject guides that achieve the full potential of LibGuides with advice on such topics as:

• Learning from the best—a showcase of 28 LibGuides with exceptional design and pedagogy
• Collaborating with faculty to embed LibGuides in course management systems
• Creating a customised look to your LibGuides with design flair and enhanced functionality
• Getting ready for smart-phone users with a plan for the mobile web
• Setting up Google Analytics on a LibGuide site
• Teaching with LibGuides
