RILINK Schools Newsletter
Winter 2020
Why a RILINK Schools Newsletter
Each edition will highlight common issues users have and techniques/tools that may be new to you. If you like the concept of a LibGuides newsletter, I will work on the next issue; if you just don't need one more "thing" to look at, I will honor that as well.
I look forward to your feedback on this idea.
Best,
Sharon

How can Statistics help me evaluate content?
On the RILINK Schools homepage, the number of visits is available. This number "turns over" January 1 each year. This statistic represents "views" but does not provide any idea as to what is being viewed or used.
The Statistics tool allows you to drill down to the Asset level to see how your content is viewed/accessed. You can look at Guide, Page, and Assets views to determine just what content is being used.
Learn more about this tool on the RILINK Schools LibGuides CMS Users Guide.
Housekeeping Tip for the Winter Issue
Take a moment to review the RILINK Schools Routine Maintenance Guide . This guide provides some basic guidance for "cleaning up" your content.
Choose just one of the areas to start your "cleanup." Prefer to have a session? Contact Sharon about offering your library as a host site for a regional session.
How accessible is your website?
Basic "how-to" steps are available on the RILINK Schools LibGuides Users Guide .
