[Web4lib] Questions for LibGuiders

[Chris Bourg]

We do not use LibGuides.
We are using Drupal for our Information Center website and create our 
Research Guides 
<https://www.stanford.edu/group/ic/cgi-bin/drupal2/research-guides> there.

We have Research Guides for every freshman and sophomore writing class 
(PWR 1 and PWR 2).  We have common nodes (Find Books/Films, Find 
Articles, Find Statistics) that are used in all or several guides, and 
specialized nodes for most classes.

We just surveyed the Freshman who took the PWR 1 classes this quarter, 
and 65% said they used the Research Guide.  Not nearly as high as I 
would hope.
