Recenzii

Adding to the growing literature on LibGuides is a LITA (Library Information Technology Assn.) guide edited by Dobbs and Sittler. Boasting a suite of services from the flagship LibGuides to the newest CMS platform, the editors discuss digital content products such as Springshare, which doesn't require user coding skills. Building on this characteristic, Dobbs and Sittler have collected chapters on administering, maintaining, designing and developing LibGuides as well as pedagogy and instruction using the system. The audience for this book is very broad, as the editors note: it is meant for current and potential users, new and experienced users. It is also valuable for those who have not migrated to LibGuides2. The chapters convey an even mix of theory, practical information, and figures to aid readers. Verdict: An essential addition to the literature on LibGuides that deserves a place on the shelf of any librarian or library administrator using the platform.
Whatever role you fill at your library -- instruction librarian, web librarian, LibGuides administrator, or guide creator -- you'll find something new, interesting and useful in Innovative LibGuides. It covers a vast spectrum of topics from technology tweaks, to user engagement, to instructional design. It's a thoughtful and deep dive into how to use the LibGuides platform in creative and smart ways.
Innovative Libguides Applications is not only chock-full of great, and innovative, ways to make use of the Libguides environment, but also includes clear, step-by-step directions on how to incorporate those innovations into your library. I was definitely impressed by the easy to follow directions as well as the out of the box thinking on how to do everything from incorporating Libguide content into your website, to creating a website or Learning Management System using Libguides to making Libguides and the other Springshare offerings such as LibAnswers and LibCal work for your particular situation. This is a book that will be useful to anyone - and one that will spark innovative ideas of your own!
