Many thanks to everyone who replied to my query about help pages and guides for navigating collection information. Your examples are very helpful! I don't have any control over the UI, so some explanation is necessary. But you've all given me lots to think about when we are able to design a different UI.
Best, ~Perian -----Original Message----- From: mcn-l-bounces at mcn.edu [mailto:mcn-l-boun...@mcn.edu] On Behalf Of Perian Sully Sent: Monday, August 10, 2009 1:59 PM To: Museum Computer Network Listserv Subject: [MCN-L] Web page about how to use collections online Dear fellow MCNers - I'm in the process of writing a How-To for our new collection online site and I was wondering if anyone had written an extensive set of instructions for how to use it? Ours has a lot of fields and options, so it's not quite as simple as entering a search term into a box. I'd like to see how others have framed their instructions, so I don't miss anything or overly-confuse anyone Please feel free to reply to me offlist with a link to your instructions. Many thanks in advance!
