    5. How can I reuse information? http://rmit.libguides.com/sustainableenergy Hi Wendy,   I’d like to use your Sustainability LibGuide as a template for a demo one I’m putting together for one of our courses.  Is this OK with you?   Cheers, Lisa

    6. How can I reuse information? Hi Lisa   Delighted! The number of individual resources listed is because one of the academics asked me to list her key web and other resources - but that was a year ago now, and I haven't really updated it since earlier in the year.   Have fun! Regards Wendy  

    7. How can I reuse information?

    8. How can I reuse information?

    9. What’s the learning curve? Some, but not a lot Easiest approach is to find a guide to alter/reuse Starting from scratch requires a bit more time and effort, but is sometimes necessary http://libguides.anu.edu.au/ebp

    10. How long does it take? 4.5 hours for http://libguides.anu.edu.au/marinebiology This was after I created 3 other LibGuides This was using the Medicine LibGuide as a starting point Expect is to take longer, but not a LOT longer

    11. ANU LibGuides Style Template - why? See The importance of a consistent visual identity by Ian Chubb http://www.anu.edu.au/mac/content/support_advice/page/anu_visual_identity/ The ANU LibGuides Style Template consists of the banners, colour scheme, etc The ANU LibGuides Style Template does not dictate the content on the LibGuide in any way. Mark Huppert and Phil Grimmett have worked hard on the template – a special thanks to them!

    12. Updating a LibGuide As often as possible Especially as collections staff become aware of important additions Before any demonstrations or Library instructional sessions

    13. What examples? – ENVS1001 Lecturer: “looks good to me, thanks, what's next in terms of us expressing support?” Former ENVS1001 tutor and part of the CoS Wattle team: “I did find some time to check out the LibGuide and am very impressed! I think it would fit in very well with 1001 website as a support tool/portal that can be used by students to support their research for essays etc. I think it is great that you can provide context for each of the tools that you provide, such as Scopus and Google Scholar, or the relevant databases - a real gem!  

    14. What examples? - Medicine Student: “You mentioned in your post on Medonline that you were seeking feedback on the usefulness of the LibGuides for medical students.   I find it an extremely useful resource, particularly as I don’t live on campus (and prefer to study at home out of ‘work’ hours). The tools I’ve used so far are: reference sources; find articles (love that the key databases plus tips on how to use them are there); find books (e-books are wonderful).   So thanks for providing this service – I think it’s great.”

    15. What examples? - Medicine 4 other med students helped develop the Quick Links list Head of the Medical Education Unit supported Curriculum committee approved Library Guide in MedOnline

    16. What examples? – Marine Biology Lecturer: “That is fantastic! Thank you so much for doing this, it is excellent.”

    17. Future plans Plant science – already promised Psychology – obvious need (will approach lecturers) Discussion or demonstration?
