Notes
Decisions on page layout

- no nested tabs/pages
- course guides are separate from subject guides
- 1-2 columns of content on each page that is not the guide homepage
Emily suggested running editorial standards by Beckie Dashiell. JS will do this.
Kristina noted the need to add something to the course guides standards section about how the review process will differ slightly allowing authors to create a guide on the fly if needed. We agreed we would decide on the specifics of this as we work on the specifics of the review process.
Most of meeting was spent detailing and assigning remaining action items related to the standards. Nancy will begin preliminary work on drafting review process.
Action items
- Jackie Sipes will share editorial standards with Beckie Dashiell for approval
