- We agreed we will use a LibGuide.
Next steps for standards
Since we wrote the document separately in sections there are likely inconsistencies in writing style, so we will each re-read the document in full. Comments, suggestions, or direct edits are fine, just use your judgement. Read specifically for any issues with the following:
- consistent voice and tone
- need for instructions
- need for more justification (additional information from the usability testing we or other librarians did that justify our proposed requirements)
- need for stronger language
- sections that could be more usable/readable (we want the standards to exhibit the best practices we are putting forth, so try and read from the perspective of a guide author)
...
