Let the Right Ones In: Supporting Patrons as Content Creators with LibGuides and LibGuides CMS
Mortimore, Jeffrey M.; Baker, Ruth L.
Journal of Electronic Resources Librarianship, v31 n3 p129-143 2019
With flexible access and permission features, LibGuides and LibGuides CMS offer an adaptable platform for hosting patron-created content. This paper highlights how librarians at Georgia Southern University opened their LibGuides CMS platform to host faculty and student projects and portfolios. Employing similar techniques, libraries can host a wide range of patron-created content while protecting library-managed guides and assets, controlling access to patron-created content, and protecting patron privacy. This paper provides a detailed overview of access and permission features available in LibGuides and LibGuides CMS, presents two case studies, and offers considerations and best practices for hosting patron-created content.
