Two down, three to go! This week we are going to explore the My Shelves, My Lists and My Networks aspects of the new catalogue! Like before, I have included a link to an explanatory PowerPoint slideshow at the end of this post to get you started.
Assignment
o Search for some titles and add them to your different shelves.
o Find some other users (Hint: try using the catalogue search bar, or look at "Recent Contributors" found on the left hand side of the explore page). Take a look at their shelves and follow some users that share your interests.
o Create a list of some favorite titles or titles you are looking forward to checking out.
o Email the trainer with the subject "Week 3 Complete" and include your login name so that she can look at your lists and follow you!
In regards to concerns expressed last week, the most common comment was that the PowerPoint was not working. I have reworked this and the link should now work. If you continue to have problems with this link, please notify me as soon as possible :)
Remember, questions can be emailed to the trainer (training@bpl.on.ca), or posted as a comment on this blog post. However, the FAQ and Help buttons are on the site to help you too.
Have Fun and Happy Days!!!
