[MCN-L] Web page about how to use collections online

2009-08-10 Thread Perian Sully
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!
