An evolving manual of best practices for creating and maintaining New York University LibGuides. This manual is maintained by the LibGuides Editorial Working Group.
The Locker Box is a collection of reusable assets for NYU Libraries LibGuides. The content in the Locker Box has wide applicability and may offer support for a variety of content you want to include in your LibGuides. Content includes:
Chat box widgets
Catalog search box widgets
Search Tips
Wellness Exchange Information
How to Use Locker Box Assets
Identify the resource from the Locker Box that you want to reuse.
Choose the +Add Box - Column # from the bottom of the column.
Select "Reuse Existing Box Tab"
Begin typing in "Locker Box" to the "Guide" field and select "**The Locker Box** by NYU Libraries".
In the Box field, find the box that you want to copy in order as they are listed on the Locker Box's pages. For example, to add a Catalog Search Widget, find the page heading: "Search Box Widgets: Library Catalog and Other NYU Libraries" then select the box. For example "Search the NYU Libraries Catalog".
Give the mapped box a "Box Name" (it can be the same as the title of the box you are copying).
Choose a position for the box (defaults to "Bottom of the Column").
Leave the box for "Copy" unchecked so that it maps to the content in the Locker Box (if it needs to be updated at some point in the future, you won't have to manually update all of your copied boxes -- only the Locker Box's content will be updated and pushed to your Guide(s)).
Select the "Save" button.
Confirm that it's mapped by looking for the Recycle Icon
