[AISLE-Share] A hyper-doc vs. LibGuides

[Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators]

I’d probably use Google Sites over hyper-docs to replace LibGuides.  I am a huge fan of LibGuides, though, and frequently search the LibGuides community to get ideas for creating new LibGuides.

Hi!

Does anyone use hyper-docs to provide research links, sources, etc. for classes?

I bought LibGuides and am thinking that a LibGuide might be overkill for the size of my school. I have a little more than 450 students at the high school level, and I am the only Library "staff" person here (I have my MLIS). I am having trouble getting started creating the LibGuides and am hesitant to take on the recurring, annual cost of a subscription to LibGuides if I can "git 'er done" with just a hyper-Doc. (I am feeling like I don't have time to create LibGuides since I am also performing all clerical/staff/supervision duties a library needs). It's already October and I haven't created one yet.

What are your thoughts?

Thank you for sharing.
