Give patrons and new staff a quick start guide to statewide electronic resources with Niche Academy tutorials, now on selected pages in GoWYLD.
The Wyoming State Library’s Niche Academy includes video tutorials for digital content, such as downloadable ebooks and audiobooks, Novelist Plus, LearningExpress Library, Chilton Auto Repair, Mango Languages, and more.
Niche Academy tutorials are ready-made and updated continually. Videos are clear and concise. Each tutorial includes a link back to the specific GoWYLD electronic resource for ease of access. They’re even a great promotional tool, as each series includes an introductory video that gives a quick tour and explains the benefits.
The State Library will also be able to use Niche to deliver additional custom tutorials going forward. The State Library’s Academy will only include resources that are available to all libraries in the state
In addition to the main WSL Niche Academy page, you can access the tutorials from a pullout tab on the right on GoWYLD.net and on the main digital content pages. Questions may be directed to Desiree Saunders, WYLD Systems Librarian, at desiree.saunders@wyo.gov or (307) 777-6258.
