...
- like that it includes exemplary guides
- like the "preferred terminology"
- way too much content overall - seems like it would be overwhelming for guide authors
Questions I have
- Should we be separating content by source type (books, articles, etc.) Is this how users search for it? Is it relevant in the Blacklight discovery environment?
- How many tabs should a guide be limited to? (personal opinion: one page guides; exceptions could be granted if author submits justification for this, but what would the parameters be?)
- What does a default template look like? What elements does it contain?
- What content and labeling do we want to be uniform across guides?
EBT
Some of the sections in these guidelines that we may want to include in our own:
- General principles/philosophy behind approach
- Editorial style guide: naming conventions, formatting, etc.
- Structure/layout: pages, boxes; headings, navigation; embedding links/media
- Accessibility
- Specific guidelines for course guides?
- Managing guides (after publication)
- General “tips” page
