University LibGuides Admin Guide: Guide Layout

Guide Layout

All guides (excluding the Homepage) use the layout below. Layout is automatically applied to guides.

Any number of boxes are allowed in the main (right) column, although best practice is to chunk content into separate pages within a guide to avoid excessive scrolling and cognitive overload.

Boxes are allowed in the left column beneath the side navigation, but this should generally contain supporting content. Keep in mind that screenreaders will read boxes in this column first.

Any amount of content and content types are allowed in a single box, although best practice is to chunk content into separate boxes within a page for readability.
