Status Note

Published: Content approved by group 2 - 22/10/2020

Essential - Reusing the SEARCH ERESOURCES Pink Graphic    Required

The final version of the About eResources box contains standard wording and the reusable pink graphic link (See example in the right column). It also includes an individualised link to a direct subject search of the eResources A–Z list. To keep this information in the same box, you will have to adjust the box as shown below, and add the direct subject search link for your general subject area.  


  • In your copied template guide, reuse the SEARCH ERESOURCES pink graphic provided in the Assets.
  • Reusing (Mapping) the link to the graphic will provide us with statistics on how often it is used.
  • CSS styles are in place to centre the pink graphic within the box.
  • Changes to the link of the graphic can be applied globally.

Important:

  • Always reuse the link asset ID: 47207327, link name: Search eResources (#47207327)
  • Place the pink graphic link between the 2 Rich Text/HTML items as shown in the instructions below.
  • Please note that the link title Search eResources will not be visible in in the preview or when the guide is published.
