METRO holds classes regularly covering different aspects of librarianship. Today's class titled 'Using LibGuides To Deliver Dynamic Library Content Online' was given by Mazen Khoury of Springshare. I attended this meeting since I have heard so much anecdtally about Libguides and seriously want to use them in the NJIT Library.
Most of the participants were librarians at institutions that already have implemented Libguides. There always is a learning curve when a new product is used. Mazen set everyone up with an account on http://demo.libguides.com and showed how a libguide can be constructed. There is a web site http://community.libguides.com where people can see what libraries have done with their libguides.
I found the session quite useful. I hope that in this period of constrained budgets we can afford to purchase this system.
