**The Locker Box**

Reusable assets for NYU Libraries guide authors.

Using Search Widgets in Your LibGuides

Search widgets allow users to quickly search a database or resource directly from a webpage. Here you will find a selection of widgets that you can reuse in your LibGuides. Each widget contains the resource/database/tool description so that users have adequate contextual information before they search.

  • Only reuse (do not copy) existing official widgets in the Locker Box (these have been reviewed by the LibGuides Working Group)
  • If you want to make a widget please contact the LibGuides Technical Working Group at libguides-technical@nyu.edu first, so we can help ensure the widget is digitally accessible and cyber security safe.

Accessibility and Cyber Security Disclaimer

  • Widgets can create functionality issues and security risks for our users and our system. Proceed with caution.
  • If a widget is a security or accessibility concern the LibGuide Working Group will remove it from the system.
