On the Job & Internships
Here are a sample of the LibGuides I have created for Ivy Tech Community College and the Shedd Aquarium.
Ivy Tech Community College Library LibGuides
Shedd Aquarium Library LibGuides
During the fall semester of 2019, I was grateful to earn my 144 intern hours at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. I Learned a great deal during my internship. Having only created two LibGuides in the past, I was able to learn how to set up a LibGuide from scratch. The library had a LibGuide account through a consortium, but it has not been utilized. I was given everything I needed to construct the guide. We discussed goals and hopes for implementing a LibGuide for the aquarium. I was given free reign over the design with the inspiration coming from the San Diego Zoo.
I completely edited the Shedd's group admin homepage, removing the consortium default layout. I combined the Shedd Aquarium's logo with stock elements to create a logo for the Library using the required color schematics.
For the library, I have created a Library Homepage that is only accessed by users using the Shedd Aquariums IP.
Then I made a template so all the animal fact sheets, which are separate LibGuides, that are linked to the Homepage are consistent.
This is ..
This LibGuide is replacing the old Intranet site.
Fall of 2019, our campus started cataloging board games to offer our students, staff and faculty. After, watching a webinar, and doing some research, I created a help sheet for cataloging our collection.
