ACT for Success: Three Strategies to Keep Your Content-Creation Project on Track Online
Creating content is time consuming—we understand that! It’s frustrating to think your work is finished, only for Library Services to say something needs to be added or changed before the content can go live. This session will give you tips you can ‘ACT’ on to avoid common pitfalls in three areas that delay content creation projects:
- Analysis/Accessibility
- Copyright
- Timelines
Learning objectives:
At the end of this session, you will have strategies to help you:
- Develop content that is ready for Library Services’ technical teams the first time around
- Set achievable project timelines
Recommended for: Nova Scotia Health staff who create educational and informational content, such as LMS courses, patient pamphlets and subject guides
