Duration: 30 Minutes
[00:00:04.868]
Welcome again, everyone. Today we have another
[00:00:07.038]
Gale 101 session.
[00:00:08.800]
Today we're focused on Gale business entrepreneurship.
[00:00:11.750]
My name is Amber Winters and I am a senior training
[00:00:14.118]
consultant here with Gale.
[00:00:16.670]
So a brief agenda for everyone first will
[00:00:18.699]
overview the resource itself. So
[00:00:21.010]
the content that's included, what you can expect,
[00:00:23.408]
things like that, then we'll really dive
[00:00:25.478]
into the content so we can take a look at some of the
[00:00:27.489]
different content types your user users
[00:00:29.750]
will be able to explore through.
[00:00:31.690]
but we'll spend the majority of the time actually walking
[00:00:34.009]
through the platform to make sure you kind of understand
[00:00:36.298]
where everything is. You see the different workflows
[00:00:38.689]
and tools we have available all that good stuff.
[00:00:41.219]
And then at the very end of the session, if there are any
[00:00:43.359]
questions that I haven't answered as we move forward
[00:00:45.700]
to, as we move through the session today, I'll
[00:00:48.168]
make sure to answer those at the very end of the session.
[00:00:50.179]
And I do have some wrap up contact information
[00:00:52.250]
for you as well.
[00:00:54.789]
So let's just dive right in here to get business
[00:00:56.929]
entrepreneurship.
[00:00:58.439]
So this resource as you would expect from,
[00:01:00.520]
the name is specifically designed for entrepreneurs.
[00:01:03.200]
But I do also like to include that. It's great for business
[00:01:05.480]
students as well. And it's focused around
[00:01:07.879]
some of the main topics when we're talking
[00:01:09.888]
about small business ownership. So starting
[00:01:12.040]
a small business building it and then
[00:01:14.120]
managing it.
[00:01:16.698]
Some of the different subject area areas
[00:01:18.719]
we include are things like planning and budgeting,
[00:01:21.058]
marketing, finance, building a business
[00:01:23.278]
plan. We have a huge collection of business plans.
[00:01:25.430]
We take a look at as well as human resources.
[00:01:27.870]
So we're really trying to hit everything
[00:01:30.129]
your entrepreneurs will encounter
[00:01:32.168]
as they start their business. So this is great if
[00:01:34.250]
you have
[00:01:35.888]
an entrepreneurial program at your library
[00:01:38.040]
and you have individuals coming in looking
[00:01:40.159]
for that sort of content. This is a great
[00:01:42.290]
place to send them. They'll find those nice
[00:01:44.500]
business plans, but they also find supplemental material
[00:01:47.010]
about really anything they
[00:01:49.049]
can think of for running their small business.
[00:01:52.900]
And in addition to all of the great content, we have a lot of
[00:01:54.939]
tools that are going to help them as well that we'll take a look
[00:01:57.239]
at. So highlights the notes. If they want
[00:01:59.359]
to highlight the different articles, they're reading
[00:02:01.790]
a great translation feature. So if you have
[00:02:04.338]
a large, let's say Spanish speaking
[00:02:06.430]
population, they can translate our articles
[00:02:08.659]
into Spanish.
[00:02:09.929]
We have a read speaker for those who have trouble reading
[00:02:12.588]
text manipulation that allows them to change
[00:02:14.808]
how the words look
[00:02:16.979]
on the page, our citation generator
[00:02:19.058]
for any students coming in using this resource
[00:02:21.429]
for projects or
[00:02:23.199]
homework and things like that as
[00:02:25.219]
well as the Google Microsoft integrations.
[00:02:27.270]
So if they want to save content out of the platform,
[00:02:29.889]
they can send it right over to either their
[00:02:31.969]
Google Drive or their Microsoft Onedrive
[00:02:34.129]
to save content for later.
[00:02:37.819]
So let's talk here a little bit about some of the key
[00:02:39.879]
content types you're going to find and find and this
[00:02:41.990]
isn't an exhaustive list, but these are some of the
[00:02:44.008]
key ones that are really most
[00:02:46.020]
utilized in this resource. So
[00:02:48.330]
the first is going to be journals, magazines
[00:02:50.710]
and news. So this is going to include
[00:02:52.838]
general business journals,
[00:02:54.879]
but it's also going to include some different industry
[00:02:56.979]
specific journals, including things like
[00:02:59.508]
um trade journals and things like that.
[00:03:01.710]
So this is really helping your entrepreneur
[00:03:03.808]
kind of build an understanding of
[00:03:06.278]
just business as a whole and where they land
[00:03:08.610]
within their industry.
[00:03:10.550]
So this is giving them that nice background.
[00:03:12.889]
You know, if they want to start a food truck, let's say they're gonna
[00:03:15.058]
wanna know a little bit about the business industry.
[00:03:17.449]
This is going to help them do that. They could take a look
[00:03:19.500]
at some of the different trade journals related to,
[00:03:21.550]
to food trucks and to bit to food in general.
[00:03:24.449]
And they can also take a look at the news to see what's going
[00:03:26.550]
on, you know, our food trucks struggling
[00:03:28.710]
right now. Are they still seeing success in different
[00:03:30.819]
areas? They'll be able to kind of explore
[00:03:32.838]
that using our journals, magazines and
[00:03:34.949]
news,
[00:03:37.028]
as I mentioned previously, we've got a nice collection
[00:03:39.368]
of real world business plans here as well.
[00:03:41.919]
So if your entrepreneurs know they're going to start
[00:03:44.099]
a business, but they really need to get organized.
[00:03:46.520]
They don't know how to do a business plan. Of course, that's
[00:03:48.580]
something not a lot of us learn.
[00:03:51.118]
They can click into g business entrepreneurship
[00:03:53.300]
and they could take a look at our full business plans,
[00:03:55.618]
which is going to show them how to write out
[00:03:57.788]
an executive summary. If
[00:03:59.800]
they need to analyze their industry, if they need
[00:04:02.020]
to kind of organize the structure
[00:04:04.080]
of their business, we have these pre
[00:04:06.250]
created for them so they can kind of copy
[00:04:08.439]
what they see and edit it to make it appropriate
[00:04:10.758]
for their business.
[00:04:13.588]
We also have a nice collection of multimedia
[00:04:15.599]
content. So if you have struggling
[00:04:17.750]
readers coming in or just, you know, people who
[00:04:19.769]
prefer to learn via video or
[00:04:21.829]
via images or something like that,
[00:04:23.670]
they'll find a lot of multimedia content here. So videos
[00:04:26.040]
and images, but also audio files. So
[00:04:28.149]
a lot of podcasts they're going to find here.
[00:04:30.209]
So if they're looking for a specific
[00:04:32.480]
business focus podcast, they
[00:04:34.720]
can check out this resource, they could certainly
[00:04:36.730]
find it here.
[00:04:38.059]
And this is just going to kind of give them
[00:04:40.250]
another dimension of learning. So they're not just
[00:04:42.329]
getting kind of texts thrown at them and they're reading
[00:04:44.488]
through articles. but they can break up those
[00:04:46.730]
articles by watching shorter videos. Usually
[00:04:48.889]
our videos are, I would say five minutes or under
[00:04:51.119]
a lot of them are closer to one or two minutes.
[00:04:53.459]
So they're getting these little bite size bits
[00:04:55.608]
of information in between having to read articles
[00:04:57.790]
that can really kind of pound
[00:05:00.040]
whatever they're learning home for them.
[00:05:04.199]
Now, our next category is a pretty broad one.
[00:05:06.319]
We call them recommended resources.
[00:05:08.449]
And a lot of these are just going to be supplemental
[00:05:10.889]
and kind of aid and learning for
[00:05:13.149]
both entrepreneurs and students.
[00:05:15.420]
So in this category, you're going to find things like topic
[00:05:17.738]
overviews. So say, I've pulled forward in
[00:05:19.790]
my little screenshot here. This is on patents.
[00:05:22.160]
So if they're trying to patent something they've invented,
[00:05:25.189]
they may want to take a quick look at that topic kind
[00:05:27.269]
of learn what a patent
[00:05:29.290]
is, how it works legally.
[00:05:31.798]
They'll find that in some of our topic overviews,
[00:05:34.309]
we also have reference articles that are a little
[00:05:36.369]
bit longer than those overviews, occupational
[00:05:38.949]
overviews and web listings as well.
[00:05:40.970]
So this is a pretty broad category.
[00:05:43.040]
Again, that's really helping
[00:05:45.100]
provide the supplemental information for
[00:05:47.588]
your users. So not necessarily
[00:05:49.850]
you know, providing them with a full business plan and got them
[00:05:51.959]
ready to go. But telling them about the
[00:05:54.178]
kind of the nitty gritty of business, you know, when
[00:05:56.230]
they hit a new topic or a new
[00:05:58.500]
vocab word that they've never seen before,
[00:06:01.178]
this is a nice place for them to go so they
[00:06:03.199]
can start to kind of learn about the
[00:06:05.250]
business lingo that's kind of swarming
[00:06:07.509]
around. And
[00:06:09.730]
finally, we do include directories in this resource
[00:06:12.189]
as well. So if they're looking for companies
[00:06:14.449]
related to something like consulting
[00:06:16.480]
or maybe employment services or marketing,
[00:06:18.528]
you know, they're ready to get third parties
[00:06:20.769]
involved with their business. Maybe they're past the starting
[00:06:23.230]
stage.
[00:06:24.100]
They're past the planning and they're more into
[00:06:26.189]
the, the managing and growing their business
[00:06:28.649]
part of their small business journey.
[00:06:30.809]
These directories may come in handy for them. They
[00:06:32.928]
can start to take a look at different third party
[00:06:34.980]
vendors and see how they can help
[00:06:37.189]
them with their growing business.
[00:06:41.540]
Now, let's go ahead and take a look at the resource.
[00:06:43.689]
I think it's best understood by just
[00:06:45.858]
clicking through while I'm switching over
[00:06:47.928]
my screen. Oops, I just got
[00:06:49.988]
signed out any questions about
[00:06:52.048]
just what we went over briefly or are we all ready
[00:06:54.250]
to just dive right in?
[00:06:58.769]
Ok, I see. No questions. So we'll go with
[00:07:00.829]
a dive in. So this is the home page here
[00:07:02.959]
of Gale business entrepreneurship. I wanna
[00:07:05.100]
give you a lay of the land before we really dive
[00:07:07.119]
in. So, of course, at the top, as you
[00:07:09.160]
would expect, we have our search bar with
[00:07:11.410]
an advanced search here. So if your patrons know
[00:07:13.639]
exactly what they're looking for, they may want to
[00:07:15.720]
just run their search up top here.
[00:07:18.540]
But down below that, we have a couple other really
[00:07:20.838]
great tools that are going to help, especially
[00:07:23.290]
for patrons who don't know exactly what they're looking
[00:07:25.509]
for. We have a few different options to help
[00:07:27.579]
them browse. So first I want to point out
[00:07:29.608]
our little toolbar here in the top
[00:07:31.869]
right corner.
[00:07:32.889]
You'll see we've pulled forward a business glossary
[00:07:35.040]
here. So
[00:07:37.088]
if they are just starting off their business and they run
[00:07:39.290]
into something, maybe they're filling out a form
[00:07:41.509]
and there's a vocab board that they
[00:07:43.548]
have absolutely no idea what it is. They can
[00:07:45.619]
actually click directly into our glossary here
[00:07:48.000]
and they can search the glossary for whatever that term
[00:07:50.139]
is. And you'll see, we just provide a quick
[00:07:52.220]
kind of consumer focused,
[00:07:54.649]
definition. So not something that's
[00:07:56.778]
focused specifically for those who are business
[00:07:59.079]
experts, but more for those who are kind
[00:08:01.189]
of novices. We'll
[00:08:03.230]
say they'll find that here
[00:08:06.048]
right next to that glossary. They also have
[00:08:08.119]
a browse topics option here
[00:08:12.040]
and this will help them kind of narrow
[00:08:14.119]
down if they have a topic in mind. Maybe, you
[00:08:16.269]
know, they, they don't know how payroll works at all and
[00:08:18.350]
they need to figure it out.
[00:08:19.579]
Maybe they want to take a look at payroll tax. They
[00:08:21.629]
can browse a payroll tax topic.
[00:08:24.028]
When I hit that, it's going to pull forward
[00:08:26.108]
all of my resources related
[00:08:28.389]
to payroll tax. So it's kind of
[00:08:30.449]
filtering down the information they see without them
[00:08:32.548]
even running a search.
[00:08:34.609]
I'm gonna go back just using my back button
[00:08:36.798]
in my browser
[00:08:40.119]
because in this little gray bar here you'll see there are
[00:08:42.200]
a few other ways that you can browse through topics.
[00:08:44.479]
So again, it starts with business topics,
[00:08:46.779]
but they can also browse by business type.
[00:08:49.029]
So again, if they're starting a restaurant
[00:08:51.469]
or maybe you know, a childcare
[00:08:53.519]
facility, they can go through an find
[00:08:55.724]
that here. And so these are some of the top
[00:08:57.945]
business types that we see within this resource
[00:09:00.134]
being utilized.
[00:09:01.514]
So they can go through and find what they're looking
[00:09:03.604]
for here. Of course, if they don't see their
[00:09:05.754]
business type, maybe their business is a little bit
[00:09:07.913]
more specific or a little bit
[00:09:10.154]
less utilized,
[00:09:13.000]
they'll run a search for their business type and they'll
[00:09:15.029]
pull content that way. But a lot
[00:09:17.219]
of times they'll find their business type
[00:09:19.259]
right here in this little browse option
[00:09:22.460]
right next to business types we have and how to,
[00:09:25.048]
so this is kind of browsing by a question
[00:09:27.269]
you would expect to ask. So, they
[00:09:29.558]
may need to know how to sell a business if you entrepreneurs
[00:09:32.048]
at the very end of their business cycle and they're ready
[00:09:34.119]
to sell their business.
[00:09:35.500]
How do they do that? They can click right
[00:09:37.570]
here and see the, how to, and how to
[00:09:39.690]
information kind of move forward this
[00:09:41.889]
way. So this is a nice
[00:09:44.129]
way for them to kind of start to browse if they
[00:09:46.210]
don't know exactly what they're looking for. Most
[00:09:48.548]
likely, one of these three browse options
[00:09:50.599]
is going to get them to where they want to be.
[00:09:53.788]
Now, if I jump back here to my home page,
[00:09:55.940]
I'm gonna do that by hitting
[00:09:57.729]
the resource title here in my
[00:10:00.139]
banner
[00:10:01.619]
and I scroll down to the bottom. So just like I have
[00:10:03.750]
these browsing options up top here, I actually
[00:10:05.989]
have some browsing options here on the home page.
[00:10:08.408]
You'll see, we do have a few topics of interest
[00:10:10.808]
pulled forward. So trending small
[00:10:12.849]
businesses, budgeting, financing
[00:10:15.940]
and loans and grants are found here kind of in
[00:10:17.950]
this carousel at top. So this may
[00:10:20.000]
draw their interest. They could click directly into that
[00:10:22.529]
or you'll see, we've got some different topics
[00:10:24.690]
organized here, kind of based
[00:10:26.750]
on where they are in their business cycle. So
[00:10:28.798]
you'll see planning, starting
[00:10:30.889]
funding
[00:10:32.019]
and managing.
[00:10:34.250]
So again, this is nice if they
[00:10:36.279]
kind of are in one specific spot in their
[00:10:38.418]
journey,
[00:10:39.269]
and they want to narrow down topics there. So you'll
[00:10:41.428]
see if I'm just starting to plan here,
[00:10:43.928]
I actually have a topic that's just related
[00:10:46.119]
to business plans. So let's click
[00:10:48.168]
into that one since a lot of times,
[00:10:50.330]
that's what entrepreneurs are looking for. You
[00:10:52.408]
know, they're trying to write out their business plan to get everything
[00:10:54.440]
organized and it's, it's a difficult thing to do.
[00:10:56.940]
So let's click here in some business. My business
[00:10:59.139]
plans topic.
[00:11:02.548]
Now, when I do that, when I click into any of the topics
[00:11:04.750]
that are listed down here,
[00:11:06.889]
it pulls forward this nice what we call topic
[00:11:09.099]
page. So at the top of this topic
[00:11:11.119]
page, we have an overview of what business
[00:11:13.379]
plans are or if I were to have clicked into
[00:11:16.080]
you know, loans or
[00:11:18.190]
human resources, It would give
[00:11:20.239]
me an an overview of that specific topic,
[00:11:22.619]
but this one is focused on business plans. So
[00:11:25.048]
talking about what a business plan is, why
[00:11:27.279]
it's good to build them, but they could be used for
[00:11:29.379]
what you should include
[00:11:31.869]
and then scrolling down underneath that.
[00:11:34.750]
I have all of my related
[00:11:36.940]
content related to business plans. So as you
[00:11:39.038]
could expect, the actual business plan
[00:11:41.340]
section here is pretty extensive. We have
[00:11:43.609]
about 1200 business plans
[00:11:46.250]
just over 1200. But you'll see, we
[00:11:48.308]
also have some recommended resources related
[00:11:50.500]
to business plans. A few
[00:11:52.779]
audio files, a video, quite
[00:11:54.950]
a few magazines and journals, some linked
[00:11:57.178]
websites and some news here
[00:11:59.340]
as well.
[00:12:01.619]
So scrolling down into that gray bar, you're going to see those
[00:12:03.830]
different content buckets. So our business plans
[00:12:05.960]
are pulled forward. Magazines,
[00:12:08.048]
directories, you say it can scroll all the way
[00:12:10.058]
down. So we've really tried to organize
[00:12:12.639]
how your users see the content. So instead
[00:12:14.788]
of running, you know, basic search and kind of
[00:12:16.889]
seeing all of this just listed, we
[00:12:19.090]
have tried to break it up a little bit to make it a little
[00:12:21.408]
bit less intimidating and a little bit easier to
[00:12:23.509]
click through. You know, they know they're looking for a business
[00:12:25.849]
plan. Boom, they can click right into our business
[00:12:27.908]
plan section and launch all of those
[00:12:30.000]
plans.
[00:12:32.479]
Now, when I do click into one of these kind of content
[00:12:34.918]
types, you'll see up top here in this gray
[00:12:37.109]
bar. Now it's showing me what I've clicked into.
[00:12:39.149]
So right now, I'm only seeing business plans.
[00:12:41.710]
But if I want to, I can change it to all content
[00:12:44.178]
types. If I want to see everything we have related
[00:12:46.229]
to business plans or I can click
[00:12:48.308]
over into a different section. So maybe instead
[00:12:50.580]
I want to take a look at some different business journals.
[00:12:53.109]
I can click into my journals section here.
[00:12:56.788]
But for today, let's stay with our business plans.
[00:13:00.548]
So scrolling down here on this page, you'll see. I also have
[00:13:02.700]
some filters listed here,
[00:13:04.899]
which again are really beneficial, especially if
[00:13:06.989]
your patrons are pulling large amounts of content.
[00:13:09.129]
You know, if they're searching
[00:13:10.580]
a pretty broad term, you
[00:13:12.700]
know, loans or something like that. Of course, they're
[00:13:14.750]
going to pull thousands and thousands
[00:13:16.808]
of, of hits. That may not be exactly what
[00:13:18.859]
they're looking for. These filters
[00:13:21.048]
are perfect for that for helping
[00:13:23.210]
them narrow it down subjects. Here is
[00:13:25.369]
a great one. Since we're specifically
[00:13:27.408]
under business plans, you'll see a lot of the subjects
[00:13:29.820]
are going to be at different industries. So
[00:13:32.080]
the leisure industry, service industries,
[00:13:35.529]
scrolling down restaurants, start ups
[00:13:37.710]
all services. So this is nice if
[00:13:40.099]
they want to kind of model their own business plan
[00:13:42.399]
off of a a current one,
[00:13:44.519]
they'll choose their industry and that's really going
[00:13:46.658]
to kind of fine tune what they see to make
[00:13:48.879]
it easier for them to build their own business
[00:13:51.279]
plan here.
[00:13:53.298]
They can also narrow it down by document type
[00:13:57.340]
publication title. They have a public publication
[00:14:00.029]
in mind or we include a search within
[00:14:02.158]
here as well. So if they want to narrow down by
[00:14:04.200]
searching now, they can do that
[00:14:06.690]
right, using that title there.
[00:14:09.580]
We do also have the option to narrow down to just
[00:14:11.830]
peer reviewed journals. Now, we're not going
[00:14:13.889]
to find any peer reviewed journals in the business
[00:14:16.090]
plan section because
[00:14:18.250]
as you would expect, it's just business plans from
[00:14:20.399]
our business plans handbook and those are not peer
[00:14:22.788]
reviewed. but you will find peer-reviewed
[00:14:25.139]
works in our magazines and journals
[00:14:27.389]
section. So if you have business
[00:14:29.658]
students coming in looking for that peer-reviewed
[00:14:31.700]
content. They will find it and they
[00:14:33.788]
can actually limit down to just that. So they're
[00:14:35.869]
seeing that only
[00:14:40.649]
now let's go ahead and click into one of these resource
[00:14:42.899]
or one of these business plans here.
[00:14:45.038]
I'm gonna do a coffee truck. That sounds
[00:14:47.460]
interesting to me.
[00:14:48.739]
Hm. We'll look into it.
[00:14:50.139]
So when your users click into any piece
[00:14:52.250]
of content, so not just a business plan but a reference
[00:14:54.558]
article or a topic overview. They've got
[00:14:56.739]
a lot of different tools and features that are going to make
[00:14:58.879]
sure they access this information
[00:15:01.000]
as simply as possible and make sure they
[00:15:03.019]
can kind of manipulate it and use it as needed.
[00:15:06.830]
So the first of our tools are going to appear up here
[00:15:09.038]
in this right hand side of the page, the upper right
[00:15:11.149]
hand corner, the first being the citation
[00:15:13.500]
tool, of course, this will be mostly beneficial
[00:15:15.960]
for any students you have coming in.
[00:15:18.080]
entrepreneurs, probably not
[00:15:20.149]
using citations as much, but anyone
[00:15:22.418]
who needs it can hit that citation button
[00:15:24.658]
and they have the options for Mlaap, a Chicago
[00:15:27.119]
or Harvard versions. They can select
[00:15:29.399]
it, copy and paste it wherever they want it to go
[00:15:31.779]
or they can send over to their drives or any
[00:15:33.989]
citation tools that they're using.
[00:15:37.918]
Moving in from the citation tool. If they decide
[00:15:39.969]
they want to hold on to this document, maybe
[00:15:42.029]
they don't have time to read it. Right now, but they want to save
[00:15:44.109]
it for later. They can use our send
[00:15:46.139]
to button right here with this little paper airplane
[00:15:49.719]
that lets them send over to a Google Drive,
[00:15:51.859]
a onedrive or they can email it to themselves.
[00:15:54.308]
So whichever they prefer that they can send
[00:15:56.719]
over. And what's nice is if they do send it over
[00:15:58.950]
to one of their drives, it's going to remain there
[00:16:01.029]
for them forever. they're not going to lose
[00:16:03.038]
access after, you know, three months or something like that.
[00:16:05.729]
They'll always have this document in their drives
[00:16:08.469]
and we actually make a folder for them that's entitled
[00:16:11.000]
Gil Business Entrepreneurship. So
[00:16:13.210]
anytime they send content over from this
[00:16:15.308]
resource, it's all going to funnel right into
[00:16:17.450]
that premade folder for them. And again, they
[00:16:19.479]
can click back into it at any time
[00:16:23.288]
if they're not super comfortable with that,
[00:16:25.320]
the kind of the technological saving.
[00:16:27.440]
We do have downloaded print options here
[00:16:29.538]
as well. So if they want to download it
[00:16:31.658]
to their desktop, they can do that or
[00:16:33.759]
they can print out a hard copy here as well.
[00:16:37.320]
Right next to that, we have this nice get link
[00:16:39.340]
button here as well. And I really like to point out
[00:16:41.359]
this button and it's found on a lot of pages,
[00:16:43.558]
not just document pages, it's found on topic
[00:16:45.918]
pages, it's found on search results.
[00:16:47.950]
and this is providing persistent URL to
[00:16:50.109]
whatever page they're on.
[00:16:51.989]
So if they want to, you know, copy and paste
[00:16:54.109]
this and send it somewhere, put it
[00:16:56.168]
in an activity, you know, if it's a student,
[00:16:58.538]
they can do that
[00:17:00.038]
right here. So you guys just have my copy button
[00:17:02.500]
and again, this is persistent. So it doesn't break,
[00:17:05.049]
which is really handy. So if I maybe even
[00:17:07.318]
a teacher coming in looking for
[00:17:09.449]
a document to share out with students,
[00:17:11.568]
I can use to get link, post it in a syllabus
[00:17:13.920]
or on a discussion board
[00:17:16.170]
wherever I want it to go. And we'll always be
[00:17:18.269]
able to access it. It's also great for
[00:17:20.539]
anyone on the line who promotes
[00:17:23.009]
these resources. If you find, you know, a really cool
[00:17:25.229]
piece of content that you want to share out on
[00:17:27.529]
your, your library's website or on your
[00:17:29.598]
social media.
[00:17:31.449]
This persistent URL is the
[00:17:33.479]
way to go with that. It's not going to break.
[00:17:35.500]
You'll always be able to have that just readily available
[00:17:37.660]
for you there.
[00:17:40.420]
And these tools so send to download
[00:17:42.489]
print.
[00:17:43.630]
These three here are also found
[00:17:45.660]
down here under the title of the article
[00:17:47.759]
you'll see. It's I've kind of broken
[00:17:49.818]
up send to. So now I have Google
[00:17:51.989]
Drive, Microsoft Onedrive
[00:17:54.039]
and Email and then I have downloaded print
[00:17:56.509]
and these tools do the same thing as these ones
[00:17:58.680]
up top here. We've just included a little bit of redundancy
[00:18:01.670]
to make sure your patrons see the tools.
[00:18:03.789]
So if they miss them up here, hopefully they'll see
[00:18:05.848]
them down here or vice versa.
[00:18:09.049]
Now, in addition to all of these sharing tools that
[00:18:11.160]
we have available, we have quite a few different accessibility
[00:18:13.779]
features as well. So again,
[00:18:15.969]
as I mentioned, we do have the ability to translate
[00:18:18.368]
all of our articles. So if you have patrons
[00:18:20.578]
coming in who need a different language for whatever
[00:18:22.799]
they're reading, they can have a translate button,
[00:18:24.920]
which is right here under the title of the
[00:18:27.000]
article,
[00:18:28.809]
you'll see, it gives me the option to choose a translated,
[00:18:31.209]
translated language.
[00:18:33.459]
And it also gives me this other option to set
[00:18:35.559]
an interface language. And I'm going to click into that
[00:18:37.709]
one. So you can see that.
[00:18:39.039]
So what that does is that actually changes,
[00:18:41.170]
let's just click into Spanish,
[00:18:44.380]
all of the tools you'll see here,
[00:18:46.469]
the navigation, the search bar, our explorer
[00:18:48.769]
panel on this right hand side here has
[00:18:50.848]
all changed over to whatever language they chose.
[00:18:53.519]
And this actually follows them throughout the full
[00:18:55.598]
duration of their session. So sometimes
[00:18:58.140]
it's helpful to actually translate right at the beginning.
[00:19:00.519]
You know, if you have a user coming in who needs that
[00:19:02.559]
Spanish navigation, you'll
[00:19:04.729]
see. It's also up top here,
[00:19:07.390]
right where it says Spanish here. If I drop
[00:19:10.118]
that down, I'm just gonna change it back to English
[00:19:14.019]
somewhere there. It is
[00:19:16.588]
because I, I know English
[00:19:18.338]
so they can actually change it at the very top
[00:19:20.410]
of the screen here as well. So they could change it
[00:19:22.459]
by hitting our translate button
[00:19:24.519]
using set interface language or they
[00:19:26.539]
can just go up to where it says English, drop
[00:19:28.838]
it down, choose their language
[00:19:32.469]
and the translate article itself as you would expect
[00:19:34.769]
translates the text of the article here
[00:19:37.348]
and they it does need to be translated each individual
[00:19:39.769]
step. So each new article they find they
[00:19:42.049]
will need to translate. But the interface language
[00:19:44.348]
will stay no matter where they are within
[00:19:46.650]
the resource,
[00:19:49.390]
right next to that translate option, we also have the option
[00:19:51.660]
to increase or decrease spot size
[00:19:53.818]
as needed.
[00:19:56.189]
Next to that, we have some more specific
[00:19:58.729]
display option changes. So we
[00:20:00.739]
could change the background color of the text,
[00:20:03.900]
we can change the font and we do have a dyslexia
[00:20:06.160]
font which some patrons find
[00:20:08.368]
handy. For me, it's a little bit harder
[00:20:10.410]
to read. But um we usually we have a
[00:20:12.420]
few different options here
[00:20:14.430]
and then I can also change my line letter and word
[00:20:16.608]
spacing.
[00:20:18.670]
So again, really kind of
[00:20:20.699]
editing how your patrons are seeing
[00:20:22.799]
this content and how they're reading it. So
[00:20:24.979]
enhancing that accessibility and letting them choose
[00:20:27.118]
what works best for them. So instead of saying, you know,
[00:20:29.390]
do you want this to be a large print or a regular
[00:20:31.439]
print? It's what color background do you want?
[00:20:33.539]
Which of these fonts works best for you, you know, what,
[00:20:36.039]
what doesn't give you a headache?
[00:20:38.098]
They'll be able to kind of navigate and choose that
[00:20:40.828]
and once they make their preferences, this actually
[00:20:43.078]
stays for the session. So when they click
[00:20:45.239]
into new articles, they're going to have this
[00:20:47.459]
kind of orangish background, this
[00:20:50.059]
larger spacing between words
[00:20:52.479]
and letters and then this font here
[00:20:54.618]
as well.
[00:20:56.118]
I'm going to actually jump back to default though
[00:20:58.250]
just by clicking back into my display options
[00:21:01.068]
and hitting back to default settings.
[00:21:05.969]
So right next to our display options here,
[00:21:08.199]
we also have our listen tool and we're gonna
[00:21:10.219]
hit it to open it, but I'm not gonna play it.
[00:21:12.789]
So when you hit it to open it, you get this little toolbar
[00:21:15.250]
dropped down here and it's going to read through the
[00:21:17.299]
full article for me all the way from
[00:21:19.380]
the title to the very end. If there is
[00:21:21.400]
an image with a caption, it reads through the caption
[00:21:23.640]
for me as well
[00:21:25.858]
and it does read in whatever language this article
[00:21:28.199]
is translated to. So if your patron translated
[00:21:30.459]
to Spanish first and then
[00:21:32.568]
hit the listen button, it's going to read this full article
[00:21:34.890]
to them in Spanish, which is another nice
[00:21:37.130]
feature to increase that accessibility.
[00:21:40.140]
And you'll see they have a few options on this little
[00:21:42.299]
toolbar that popped up with this little hamburger
[00:21:44.739]
icon. So
[00:21:47.029]
I can choose to download an MP3 if I want
[00:21:49.130]
to or I've got a few different settings
[00:21:51.299]
here that are related to highlighting.
[00:21:53.828]
So right now as it reads through, you'll see
[00:21:55.969]
it's highlighting the sentence it's reading
[00:21:58.289]
and then it's highlighting the word it's reading in a different
[00:22:00.479]
color. So I can edit that just
[00:22:02.640]
however I need to, to make this kind
[00:22:04.759]
of easier to understand.
[00:22:13.400]
Now, the last tool I want to talk about is our highlights
[00:22:15.868]
and notes tool. Um And this again is
[00:22:17.910]
going to be really helpful for students. Your
[00:22:20.469]
entrepreneurs may benefit from this as well if
[00:22:22.568]
they kind of prefer that organized research
[00:22:24.739]
where they highlight the most important things. but
[00:22:27.068]
it's really simple, you just click and drag over a
[00:22:29.088]
piece of content you think is important,
[00:22:32.039]
just choose a color if I want to annotate
[00:22:34.348]
this, you know, interesting
[00:22:37.750]
use for my plan. Maybe
[00:22:41.930]
I can go through and I can highlight anything I think is important
[00:22:44.219]
and I can highlight as much
[00:22:46.279]
or as little text as I want. I can use
[00:22:48.318]
multiple colors here to really
[00:22:50.400]
kind of mark up this document to find
[00:22:52.759]
the important bits of content
[00:22:55.479]
and these highlights and notes are session based.
[00:22:57.549]
So if your patrons do mark up their documents,
[00:23:00.269]
you know, bring all of the key points
[00:23:02.598]
forward, you wanna make sure they get this out of
[00:23:04.670]
the platform before they sign off today
[00:23:07.108]
and or before they sign off and they can do
[00:23:09.259]
that by sending over to their drives or emailing
[00:23:11.588]
or downloading or printing it will hold on to
[00:23:13.689]
these highlights and notes here as well.
[00:23:16.660]
So just make sure before they, you know, get
[00:23:18.729]
up and leave or before they close their browser,
[00:23:21.289]
anything, they highlighted anything they took notes
[00:23:23.400]
on, they have to get it out of there first.
[00:23:27.640]
And all of the highlighted notes that we take also
[00:23:29.799]
appear under this highlighted notes button up
[00:23:31.858]
top here. My last tool in this little
[00:23:34.189]
toolbar
[00:23:35.949]
so I can click view all highlights and notes
[00:23:37.979]
here. And
[00:23:40.059]
now this is kind of organizing what I've highlighted
[00:23:42.279]
for me. So it's showing me the document I highlighted,
[00:23:45.348]
it's showing me the actual text that's
[00:23:47.519]
been highlighted, the color I used
[00:23:49.670]
as well as any notes that I took here.
[00:23:52.509]
And you'll notice at the very bottom, we also have a bibliography.
[00:23:55.949]
So if I were to go through my session and
[00:23:58.118]
say highlight, you know, three or four
[00:24:00.309]
articles, I found interesting things in all
[00:24:02.729]
of the highlights are going to appear here on this one
[00:24:04.769]
page and it will look just like this,
[00:24:06.858]
they'll all be separated based on what document
[00:24:09.199]
they're in.
[00:24:10.029]
And then it'll show the colors,
[00:24:12.338]
the actual text that was highlighted
[00:24:14.380]
in the notes I took. And then the bibliography
[00:24:16.979]
will just continue to grow at the very bottom of the page.
[00:24:21.130]
So this is really nice. If your patrons are
[00:24:23.328]
looking at large numbers of documents,
[00:24:25.709]
they don't want to send, you know, 10 documents
[00:24:28.019]
over to their drive. It's a little much for them.
[00:24:30.239]
They can instead highlight the important things
[00:24:32.289]
of each of their articles and then send this page
[00:24:34.479]
over to the drive. Instead, you'll see. I have
[00:24:36.709]
my same send to up top here
[00:24:38.969]
so I can send over to Google or onedrive.
[00:24:41.650]
I can also download and print this page here.
[00:24:44.189]
What's nice is if I decided to send this over to
[00:24:46.279]
my drive, this stay is the hyperlink
[00:24:48.439]
here. So I can actually jump from my drive
[00:24:51.108]
right back to this article that I highlighted if I want
[00:24:53.229]
to read the full thing.
[00:24:55.880]
So this is a nice way for them to kind of organize
[00:24:57.910]
themselves while they're still on the resource.
[00:25:00.199]
They haven't even moved out yet. They're still in the resource
[00:25:02.989]
and they can get themselves nice and organized
[00:25:05.029]
here. No,
[00:25:09.809]
I haven't seen any questions come in at all in the Q
[00:25:11.959]
and A but I do want to make sure I'm hitting all of them.
[00:25:14.199]
So does anyone have any questions about what
[00:25:16.289]
we went through?
the content,
[00:25:18.368]
the workflows, the tools, anything
[00:25:20.880]
like that.
[00:25:23.368]
And if you're typing right now, I'm going to switch back over
[00:25:26.608]
to my slides because I do have a bit of
[00:25:28.630]
wrap up information for you.
[00:25:30.930]
So again, if you are asking a question in the Q
[00:25:33.009]
and A keep typing, that's totally fine.
[00:25:35.118]
But I wanna give you some contact information. So if
[00:25:37.219]
you have questions that you don't think of while you're on
[00:25:39.328]
the session. But you think of it after feel
[00:25:41.880]
free to reach out to me. My email
[00:25:43.939]
is just [email protected]
[00:25:47.140]
If you want to get a little more specific in how you
[00:25:49.199]
can use this with your learning community or with
[00:25:51.390]
your library,
[00:25:52.608]
you can reach out to your customer success manager.
[00:25:54.858]
They've got some great best practices.
[00:25:56.890]
They work with libraries and
[00:25:59.239]
entrepreneurial programs throughout the country.
[00:26:01.400]
You can reach out to them directly if you've worked
[00:26:03.439]
with them before or just send an email
[00:26:05.598]
to [email protected]
[00:26:08.189]
and we'll forward you to the correct person.
[00:26:10.380]
If you're interested right now in gale business entrepreneurship,
[00:26:13.049]
but you don't have it yet. You don't know who your sales
[00:26:15.239]
rep is. You can go to support.gale.com/repfinder
[00:26:18.759]
You can enter your information, we'll forward you
[00:26:20.769]
to the correct person
[00:26:22.019]
or again, if you know who it is already reach out to them
[00:26:24.088]
directly.
[00:26:25.199]
And I do want to also mention our support site.
[00:26:27.500]
So if you need some additional materials
[00:26:29.969]
training, marketing, technical,
[00:26:32.269]
uh you know, you wanna look at another webinar, you want
[00:26:34.279]
to see
[00:26:36.000]
what sort of uh promotional material we
[00:26:38.108]
have for social media, let's say all
[00:26:40.140]
of that is found on our support site, which is
[00:26:42.209]
support.gale.com. So
[00:26:44.400]
before you do any of your own training, before
[00:26:46.529]
you do any of your own promoting. Take
[00:26:48.588]
a look at the support site. We might have something built out
[00:26:50.689]
for you already. So you don't have to kind of re invent
[00:26:52.789]
the wheel.
[00:26:58.098]
No, I did save a couple minutes here for questions,
[00:27:00.250]
but again, I haven't seen any pop up, so
[00:27:02.588]
I'll go ahead and end our session a couple minutes early.
[00:27:05.229]
I appreciate everyone for being on the line and
[00:27:07.269]
hopefully we'll see all of you in future sessions.
[00:27:09.699]
Enjoy your day.
Welcome again, everyone. Today we have another
[00:00:07.038]
Gale 101 session.
[00:00:08.800]
Today we're focused on Gale business entrepreneurship.
[00:00:11.750]
My name is Amber Winters and I am a senior training
[00:00:14.118]
consultant here with Gale.
[00:00:16.670]
So a brief agenda for everyone first will
[00:00:18.699]
overview the resource itself. So
[00:00:21.010]
the content that's included, what you can expect,
[00:00:23.408]
things like that, then we'll really dive
[00:00:25.478]
into the content so we can take a look at some of the
[00:00:27.489]
different content types your user users
[00:00:29.750]
will be able to explore through.
[00:00:31.690]
but we'll spend the majority of the time actually walking
[00:00:34.009]
through the platform to make sure you kind of understand
[00:00:36.298]
where everything is. You see the different workflows
[00:00:38.689]
and tools we have available all that good stuff.
[00:00:41.219]
And then at the very end of the session, if there are any
[00:00:43.359]
questions that I haven't answered as we move forward
[00:00:45.700]
to, as we move through the session today, I'll
[00:00:48.168]
make sure to answer those at the very end of the session.
[00:00:50.179]
And I do have some wrap up contact information
[00:00:52.250]
for you as well.
[00:00:54.789]
So let's just dive right in here to get business
[00:00:56.929]
entrepreneurship.
[00:00:58.439]
So this resource as you would expect from,
[00:01:00.520]
the name is specifically designed for entrepreneurs.
[00:01:03.200]
But I do also like to include that. It's great for business
[00:01:05.480]
students as well. And it's focused around
[00:01:07.879]
some of the main topics when we're talking
[00:01:09.888]
about small business ownership. So starting
[00:01:12.040]
a small business building it and then
[00:01:14.120]
managing it.
[00:01:16.698]
Some of the different subject area areas
[00:01:18.719]
we include are things like planning and budgeting,
[00:01:21.058]
marketing, finance, building a business
[00:01:23.278]
plan. We have a huge collection of business plans.
[00:01:25.430]
We take a look at as well as human resources.
[00:01:27.870]
So we're really trying to hit everything
[00:01:30.129]
your entrepreneurs will encounter
[00:01:32.168]
as they start their business. So this is great if
[00:01:34.250]
you have
[00:01:35.888]
an entrepreneurial program at your library
[00:01:38.040]
and you have individuals coming in looking
[00:01:40.159]
for that sort of content. This is a great
[00:01:42.290]
place to send them. They'll find those nice
[00:01:44.500]
business plans, but they also find supplemental material
[00:01:47.010]
about really anything they
[00:01:49.049]
can think of for running their small business.
[00:01:52.900]
And in addition to all of the great content, we have a lot of
[00:01:54.939]
tools that are going to help them as well that we'll take a look
[00:01:57.239]
at. So highlights the notes. If they want
[00:01:59.359]
to highlight the different articles, they're reading
[00:02:01.790]
a great translation feature. So if you have
[00:02:04.338]
a large, let's say Spanish speaking
[00:02:06.430]
population, they can translate our articles
[00:02:08.659]
into Spanish.
[00:02:09.929]
We have a read speaker for those who have trouble reading
[00:02:12.588]
text manipulation that allows them to change
[00:02:14.808]
how the words look
[00:02:16.979]
on the page, our citation generator
[00:02:19.058]
for any students coming in using this resource
[00:02:21.429]
for projects or
[00:02:23.199]
homework and things like that as
[00:02:25.219]
well as the Google Microsoft integrations.
[00:02:27.270]
So if they want to save content out of the platform,
[00:02:29.889]
they can send it right over to either their
[00:02:31.969]
Google Drive or their Microsoft Onedrive
[00:02:34.129]
to save content for later.
[00:02:37.819]
So let's talk here a little bit about some of the key
[00:02:39.879]
content types you're going to find and find and this
[00:02:41.990]
isn't an exhaustive list, but these are some of the
[00:02:44.008]
key ones that are really most
[00:02:46.020]
utilized in this resource. So
[00:02:48.330]
the first is going to be journals, magazines
[00:02:50.710]
and news. So this is going to include
[00:02:52.838]
general business journals,
[00:02:54.879]
but it's also going to include some different industry
[00:02:56.979]
specific journals, including things like
[00:02:59.508]
um trade journals and things like that.
[00:03:01.710]
So this is really helping your entrepreneur
[00:03:03.808]
kind of build an understanding of
[00:03:06.278]
just business as a whole and where they land
[00:03:08.610]
within their industry.
[00:03:10.550]
So this is giving them that nice background.
[00:03:12.889]
You know, if they want to start a food truck, let's say they're gonna
[00:03:15.058]
wanna know a little bit about the business industry.
[00:03:17.449]
This is going to help them do that. They could take a look
[00:03:19.500]
at some of the different trade journals related to,
[00:03:21.550]
to food trucks and to bit to food in general.
[00:03:24.449]
And they can also take a look at the news to see what's going
[00:03:26.550]
on, you know, our food trucks struggling
[00:03:28.710]
right now. Are they still seeing success in different
[00:03:30.819]
areas? They'll be able to kind of explore
[00:03:32.838]
that using our journals, magazines and
[00:03:34.949]
news,
[00:03:37.028]
as I mentioned previously, we've got a nice collection
[00:03:39.368]
of real world business plans here as well.
[00:03:41.919]
So if your entrepreneurs know they're going to start
[00:03:44.099]
a business, but they really need to get organized.
[00:03:46.520]
They don't know how to do a business plan. Of course, that's
[00:03:48.580]
something not a lot of us learn.
[00:03:51.118]
They can click into g business entrepreneurship
[00:03:53.300]
and they could take a look at our full business plans,
[00:03:55.618]
which is going to show them how to write out
[00:03:57.788]
an executive summary. If
[00:03:59.800]
they need to analyze their industry, if they need
[00:04:02.020]
to kind of organize the structure
[00:04:04.080]
of their business, we have these pre
[00:04:06.250]
created for them so they can kind of copy
[00:04:08.439]
what they see and edit it to make it appropriate
[00:04:10.758]
for their business.
[00:04:13.588]
We also have a nice collection of multimedia
[00:04:15.599]
content. So if you have struggling
[00:04:17.750]
readers coming in or just, you know, people who
[00:04:19.769]
prefer to learn via video or
[00:04:21.829]
via images or something like that,
[00:04:23.670]
they'll find a lot of multimedia content here. So videos
[00:04:26.040]
and images, but also audio files. So
[00:04:28.149]
a lot of podcasts they're going to find here.
[00:04:30.209]
So if they're looking for a specific
[00:04:32.480]
business focus podcast, they
[00:04:34.720]
can check out this resource, they could certainly
[00:04:36.730]
find it here.
[00:04:38.059]
And this is just going to kind of give them
[00:04:40.250]
another dimension of learning. So they're not just
[00:04:42.329]
getting kind of texts thrown at them and they're reading
[00:04:44.488]
through articles. but they can break up those
[00:04:46.730]
articles by watching shorter videos. Usually
[00:04:48.889]
our videos are, I would say five minutes or under
[00:04:51.119]
a lot of them are closer to one or two minutes.
[00:04:53.459]
So they're getting these little bite size bits
[00:04:55.608]
of information in between having to read articles
[00:04:57.790]
that can really kind of pound
[00:05:00.040]
whatever they're learning home for them.
[00:05:04.199]
Now, our next category is a pretty broad one.
[00:05:06.319]
We call them recommended resources.
[00:05:08.449]
And a lot of these are just going to be supplemental
[00:05:10.889]
and kind of aid and learning for
[00:05:13.149]
both entrepreneurs and students.
[00:05:15.420]
So in this category, you're going to find things like topic
[00:05:17.738]
overviews. So say, I've pulled forward in
[00:05:19.790]
my little screenshot here. This is on patents.
[00:05:22.160]
So if they're trying to patent something they've invented,
[00:05:25.189]
they may want to take a quick look at that topic kind
[00:05:27.269]
of learn what a patent
[00:05:29.290]
is, how it works legally.
[00:05:31.798]
They'll find that in some of our topic overviews,
[00:05:34.309]
we also have reference articles that are a little
[00:05:36.369]
bit longer than those overviews, occupational
[00:05:38.949]
overviews and web listings as well.
[00:05:40.970]
So this is a pretty broad category.
[00:05:43.040]
Again, that's really helping
[00:05:45.100]
provide the supplemental information for
[00:05:47.588]
your users. So not necessarily
[00:05:49.850]
you know, providing them with a full business plan and got them
[00:05:51.959]
ready to go. But telling them about the
[00:05:54.178]
kind of the nitty gritty of business, you know, when
[00:05:56.230]
they hit a new topic or a new
[00:05:58.500]
vocab word that they've never seen before,
[00:06:01.178]
this is a nice place for them to go so they
[00:06:03.199]
can start to kind of learn about the
[00:06:05.250]
business lingo that's kind of swarming
[00:06:07.509]
around. And
[00:06:09.730]
finally, we do include directories in this resource
[00:06:12.189]
as well. So if they're looking for companies
[00:06:14.449]
related to something like consulting
[00:06:16.480]
or maybe employment services or marketing,
[00:06:18.528]
you know, they're ready to get third parties
[00:06:20.769]
involved with their business. Maybe they're past the starting
[00:06:23.230]
stage.
[00:06:24.100]
They're past the planning and they're more into
[00:06:26.189]
the, the managing and growing their business
[00:06:28.649]
part of their small business journey.
[00:06:30.809]
These directories may come in handy for them. They
[00:06:32.928]
can start to take a look at different third party
[00:06:34.980]
vendors and see how they can help
[00:06:37.189]
them with their growing business.
[00:06:41.540]
Now, let's go ahead and take a look at the resource.
[00:06:43.689]
I think it's best understood by just
[00:06:45.858]
clicking through while I'm switching over
[00:06:47.928]
my screen. Oops, I just got
[00:06:49.988]
signed out any questions about
[00:06:52.048]
just what we went over briefly or are we all ready
[00:06:54.250]
to just dive right in?
[00:06:58.769]
Ok, I see. No questions. So we'll go with
[00:07:00.829]
a dive in. So this is the home page here
[00:07:02.959]
of Gale business entrepreneurship. I wanna
[00:07:05.100]
give you a lay of the land before we really dive
[00:07:07.119]
in. So, of course, at the top, as you
[00:07:09.160]
would expect, we have our search bar with
[00:07:11.410]
an advanced search here. So if your patrons know
[00:07:13.639]
exactly what they're looking for, they may want to
[00:07:15.720]
just run their search up top here.
[00:07:18.540]
But down below that, we have a couple other really
[00:07:20.838]
great tools that are going to help, especially
[00:07:23.290]
for patrons who don't know exactly what they're looking
[00:07:25.509]
for. We have a few different options to help
[00:07:27.579]
them browse. So first I want to point out
[00:07:29.608]
our little toolbar here in the top
[00:07:31.869]
right corner.
[00:07:32.889]
You'll see we've pulled forward a business glossary
[00:07:35.040]
here. So
[00:07:37.088]
if they are just starting off their business and they run
[00:07:39.290]
into something, maybe they're filling out a form
[00:07:41.509]
and there's a vocab board that they
[00:07:43.548]
have absolutely no idea what it is. They can
[00:07:45.619]
actually click directly into our glossary here
[00:07:48.000]
and they can search the glossary for whatever that term
[00:07:50.139]
is. And you'll see, we just provide a quick
[00:07:52.220]
kind of consumer focused,
[00:07:54.649]
definition. So not something that's
[00:07:56.778]
focused specifically for those who are business
[00:07:59.079]
experts, but more for those who are kind
[00:08:01.189]
of novices. We'll
[00:08:03.230]
say they'll find that here
[00:08:06.048]
right next to that glossary. They also have
[00:08:08.119]
a browse topics option here
[00:08:12.040]
and this will help them kind of narrow
[00:08:14.119]
down if they have a topic in mind. Maybe, you
[00:08:16.269]
know, they, they don't know how payroll works at all and
[00:08:18.350]
they need to figure it out.
[00:08:19.579]
Maybe they want to take a look at payroll tax. They
[00:08:21.629]
can browse a payroll tax topic.
[00:08:24.028]
When I hit that, it's going to pull forward
[00:08:26.108]
all of my resources related
[00:08:28.389]
to payroll tax. So it's kind of
[00:08:30.449]
filtering down the information they see without them
[00:08:32.548]
even running a search.
[00:08:34.609]
I'm gonna go back just using my back button
[00:08:36.798]
in my browser
[00:08:40.119]
because in this little gray bar here you'll see there are
[00:08:42.200]
a few other ways that you can browse through topics.
[00:08:44.479]
So again, it starts with business topics,
[00:08:46.779]
but they can also browse by business type.
[00:08:49.029]
So again, if they're starting a restaurant
[00:08:51.469]
or maybe you know, a childcare
[00:08:53.519]
facility, they can go through an find
[00:08:55.724]
that here. And so these are some of the top
[00:08:57.945]
business types that we see within this resource
[00:09:00.134]
being utilized.
[00:09:01.514]
So they can go through and find what they're looking
[00:09:03.604]
for here. Of course, if they don't see their
[00:09:05.754]
business type, maybe their business is a little bit
[00:09:07.913]
more specific or a little bit
[00:09:10.154]
less utilized,
[00:09:13.000]
they'll run a search for their business type and they'll
[00:09:15.029]
pull content that way. But a lot
[00:09:17.219]
of times they'll find their business type
[00:09:19.259]
right here in this little browse option
[00:09:22.460]
right next to business types we have and how to,
[00:09:25.048]
so this is kind of browsing by a question
[00:09:27.269]
you would expect to ask. So, they
[00:09:29.558]
may need to know how to sell a business if you entrepreneurs
[00:09:32.048]
at the very end of their business cycle and they're ready
[00:09:34.119]
to sell their business.
[00:09:35.500]
How do they do that? They can click right
[00:09:37.570]
here and see the, how to, and how to
[00:09:39.690]
information kind of move forward this
[00:09:41.889]
way. So this is a nice
[00:09:44.129]
way for them to kind of start to browse if they
[00:09:46.210]
don't know exactly what they're looking for. Most
[00:09:48.548]
likely, one of these three browse options
[00:09:50.599]
is going to get them to where they want to be.
[00:09:53.788]
Now, if I jump back here to my home page,
[00:09:55.940]
I'm gonna do that by hitting
[00:09:57.729]
the resource title here in my
[00:10:00.139]
banner
[00:10:01.619]
and I scroll down to the bottom. So just like I have
[00:10:03.750]
these browsing options up top here, I actually
[00:10:05.989]
have some browsing options here on the home page.
[00:10:08.408]
You'll see, we do have a few topics of interest
[00:10:10.808]
pulled forward. So trending small
[00:10:12.849]
businesses, budgeting, financing
[00:10:15.940]
and loans and grants are found here kind of in
[00:10:17.950]
this carousel at top. So this may
[00:10:20.000]
draw their interest. They could click directly into that
[00:10:22.529]
or you'll see, we've got some different topics
[00:10:24.690]
organized here, kind of based
[00:10:26.750]
on where they are in their business cycle. So
[00:10:28.798]
you'll see planning, starting
[00:10:30.889]
funding
[00:10:32.019]
and managing.
[00:10:34.250]
So again, this is nice if they
[00:10:36.279]
kind of are in one specific spot in their
[00:10:38.418]
journey,
[00:10:39.269]
and they want to narrow down topics there. So you'll
[00:10:41.428]
see if I'm just starting to plan here,
[00:10:43.928]
I actually have a topic that's just related
[00:10:46.119]
to business plans. So let's click
[00:10:48.168]
into that one since a lot of times,
[00:10:50.330]
that's what entrepreneurs are looking for. You
[00:10:52.408]
know, they're trying to write out their business plan to get everything
[00:10:54.440]
organized and it's, it's a difficult thing to do.
[00:10:56.940]
So let's click here in some business. My business
[00:10:59.139]
plans topic.
[00:11:02.548]
Now, when I do that, when I click into any of the topics
[00:11:04.750]
that are listed down here,
[00:11:06.889]
it pulls forward this nice what we call topic
[00:11:09.099]
page. So at the top of this topic
[00:11:11.119]
page, we have an overview of what business
[00:11:13.379]
plans are or if I were to have clicked into
[00:11:16.080]
you know, loans or
[00:11:18.190]
human resources, It would give
[00:11:20.239]
me an an overview of that specific topic,
[00:11:22.619]
but this one is focused on business plans. So
[00:11:25.048]
talking about what a business plan is, why
[00:11:27.279]
it's good to build them, but they could be used for
[00:11:29.379]
what you should include
[00:11:31.869]
and then scrolling down underneath that.
[00:11:34.750]
I have all of my related
[00:11:36.940]
content related to business plans. So as you
[00:11:39.038]
could expect, the actual business plan
[00:11:41.340]
section here is pretty extensive. We have
[00:11:43.609]
about 1200 business plans
[00:11:46.250]
just over 1200. But you'll see, we
[00:11:48.308]
also have some recommended resources related
[00:11:50.500]
to business plans. A few
[00:11:52.779]
audio files, a video, quite
[00:11:54.950]
a few magazines and journals, some linked
[00:11:57.178]
websites and some news here
[00:11:59.340]
as well.
[00:12:01.619]
So scrolling down into that gray bar, you're going to see those
[00:12:03.830]
different content buckets. So our business plans
[00:12:05.960]
are pulled forward. Magazines,
[00:12:08.048]
directories, you say it can scroll all the way
[00:12:10.058]
down. So we've really tried to organize
[00:12:12.639]
how your users see the content. So instead
[00:12:14.788]
of running, you know, basic search and kind of
[00:12:16.889]
seeing all of this just listed, we
[00:12:19.090]
have tried to break it up a little bit to make it a little
[00:12:21.408]
bit less intimidating and a little bit easier to
[00:12:23.509]
click through. You know, they know they're looking for a business
[00:12:25.849]
plan. Boom, they can click right into our business
[00:12:27.908]
plan section and launch all of those
[00:12:30.000]
plans.
[00:12:32.479]
Now, when I do click into one of these kind of content
[00:12:34.918]
types, you'll see up top here in this gray
[00:12:37.109]
bar. Now it's showing me what I've clicked into.
[00:12:39.149]
So right now, I'm only seeing business plans.
[00:12:41.710]
But if I want to, I can change it to all content
[00:12:44.178]
types. If I want to see everything we have related
[00:12:46.229]
to business plans or I can click
[00:12:48.308]
over into a different section. So maybe instead
[00:12:50.580]
I want to take a look at some different business journals.
[00:12:53.109]
I can click into my journals section here.
[00:12:56.788]
But for today, let's stay with our business plans.
[00:13:00.548]
So scrolling down here on this page, you'll see. I also have
[00:13:02.700]
some filters listed here,
[00:13:04.899]
which again are really beneficial, especially if
[00:13:06.989]
your patrons are pulling large amounts of content.
[00:13:09.129]
You know, if they're searching
[00:13:10.580]
a pretty broad term, you
[00:13:12.700]
know, loans or something like that. Of course, they're
[00:13:14.750]
going to pull thousands and thousands
[00:13:16.808]
of, of hits. That may not be exactly what
[00:13:18.859]
they're looking for. These filters
[00:13:21.048]
are perfect for that for helping
[00:13:23.210]
them narrow it down subjects. Here is
[00:13:25.369]
a great one. Since we're specifically
[00:13:27.408]
under business plans, you'll see a lot of the subjects
[00:13:29.820]
are going to be at different industries. So
[00:13:32.080]
the leisure industry, service industries,
[00:13:35.529]
scrolling down restaurants, start ups
[00:13:37.710]
all services. So this is nice if
[00:13:40.099]
they want to kind of model their own business plan
[00:13:42.399]
off of a a current one,
[00:13:44.519]
they'll choose their industry and that's really going
[00:13:46.658]
to kind of fine tune what they see to make
[00:13:48.879]
it easier for them to build their own business
[00:13:51.279]
plan here.
[00:13:53.298]
They can also narrow it down by document type
[00:13:57.340]
publication title. They have a public publication
[00:14:00.029]
in mind or we include a search within
[00:14:02.158]
here as well. So if they want to narrow down by
[00:14:04.200]
searching now, they can do that
[00:14:06.690]
right, using that title there.
[00:14:09.580]
We do also have the option to narrow down to just
[00:14:11.830]
peer reviewed journals. Now, we're not going
[00:14:13.889]
to find any peer reviewed journals in the business
[00:14:16.090]
plan section because
[00:14:18.250]
as you would expect, it's just business plans from
[00:14:20.399]
our business plans handbook and those are not peer
[00:14:22.788]
reviewed. but you will find peer-reviewed
[00:14:25.139]
works in our magazines and journals
[00:14:27.389]
section. So if you have business
[00:14:29.658]
students coming in looking for that peer-reviewed
[00:14:31.700]
content. They will find it and they
[00:14:33.788]
can actually limit down to just that. So they're
[00:14:35.869]
seeing that only
[00:14:40.649]
now let's go ahead and click into one of these resource
[00:14:42.899]
or one of these business plans here.
[00:14:45.038]
I'm gonna do a coffee truck. That sounds
[00:14:47.460]
interesting to me.
[00:14:48.739]
Hm. We'll look into it.
[00:14:50.139]
So when your users click into any piece
[00:14:52.250]
of content, so not just a business plan but a reference
[00:14:54.558]
article or a topic overview. They've got
[00:14:56.739]
a lot of different tools and features that are going to make
[00:14:58.879]
sure they access this information
[00:15:01.000]
as simply as possible and make sure they
[00:15:03.019]
can kind of manipulate it and use it as needed.
[00:15:06.830]
So the first of our tools are going to appear up here
[00:15:09.038]
in this right hand side of the page, the upper right
[00:15:11.149]
hand corner, the first being the citation
[00:15:13.500]
tool, of course, this will be mostly beneficial
[00:15:15.960]
for any students you have coming in.
[00:15:18.080]
entrepreneurs, probably not
[00:15:20.149]
using citations as much, but anyone
[00:15:22.418]
who needs it can hit that citation button
[00:15:24.658]
and they have the options for Mlaap, a Chicago
[00:15:27.119]
or Harvard versions. They can select
[00:15:29.399]
it, copy and paste it wherever they want it to go
[00:15:31.779]
or they can send over to their drives or any
[00:15:33.989]
citation tools that they're using.
[00:15:37.918]
Moving in from the citation tool. If they decide
[00:15:39.969]
they want to hold on to this document, maybe
[00:15:42.029]
they don't have time to read it. Right now, but they want to save
[00:15:44.109]
it for later. They can use our send
[00:15:46.139]
to button right here with this little paper airplane
[00:15:49.719]
that lets them send over to a Google Drive,
[00:15:51.859]
a onedrive or they can email it to themselves.
[00:15:54.308]
So whichever they prefer that they can send
[00:15:56.719]
over. And what's nice is if they do send it over
[00:15:58.950]
to one of their drives, it's going to remain there
[00:16:01.029]
for them forever. they're not going to lose
[00:16:03.038]
access after, you know, three months or something like that.
[00:16:05.729]
They'll always have this document in their drives
[00:16:08.469]
and we actually make a folder for them that's entitled
[00:16:11.000]
Gil Business Entrepreneurship. So
[00:16:13.210]
anytime they send content over from this
[00:16:15.308]
resource, it's all going to funnel right into
[00:16:17.450]
that premade folder for them. And again, they
[00:16:19.479]
can click back into it at any time
[00:16:23.288]
if they're not super comfortable with that,
[00:16:25.320]
the kind of the technological saving.
[00:16:27.440]
We do have downloaded print options here
[00:16:29.538]
as well. So if they want to download it
[00:16:31.658]
to their desktop, they can do that or
[00:16:33.759]
they can print out a hard copy here as well.
[00:16:37.320]
Right next to that, we have this nice get link
[00:16:39.340]
button here as well. And I really like to point out
[00:16:41.359]
this button and it's found on a lot of pages,
[00:16:43.558]
not just document pages, it's found on topic
[00:16:45.918]
pages, it's found on search results.
[00:16:47.950]
and this is providing persistent URL to
[00:16:50.109]
whatever page they're on.
[00:16:51.989]
So if they want to, you know, copy and paste
[00:16:54.109]
this and send it somewhere, put it
[00:16:56.168]
in an activity, you know, if it's a student,
[00:16:58.538]
they can do that
[00:17:00.038]
right here. So you guys just have my copy button
[00:17:02.500]
and again, this is persistent. So it doesn't break,
[00:17:05.049]
which is really handy. So if I maybe even
[00:17:07.318]
a teacher coming in looking for
[00:17:09.449]
a document to share out with students,
[00:17:11.568]
I can use to get link, post it in a syllabus
[00:17:13.920]
or on a discussion board
[00:17:16.170]
wherever I want it to go. And we'll always be
[00:17:18.269]
able to access it. It's also great for
[00:17:20.539]
anyone on the line who promotes
[00:17:23.009]
these resources. If you find, you know, a really cool
[00:17:25.229]
piece of content that you want to share out on
[00:17:27.529]
your, your library's website or on your
[00:17:29.598]
social media.
[00:17:31.449]
This persistent URL is the
[00:17:33.479]
way to go with that. It's not going to break.
[00:17:35.500]
You'll always be able to have that just readily available
[00:17:37.660]
for you there.
[00:17:40.420]
And these tools so send to download
[00:17:42.489]
print.
[00:17:43.630]
These three here are also found
[00:17:45.660]
down here under the title of the article
[00:17:47.759]
you'll see. It's I've kind of broken
[00:17:49.818]
up send to. So now I have Google
[00:17:51.989]
Drive, Microsoft Onedrive
[00:17:54.039]
and Email and then I have downloaded print
[00:17:56.509]
and these tools do the same thing as these ones
[00:17:58.680]
up top here. We've just included a little bit of redundancy
[00:18:01.670]
to make sure your patrons see the tools.
[00:18:03.789]
So if they miss them up here, hopefully they'll see
[00:18:05.848]
them down here or vice versa.
[00:18:09.049]
Now, in addition to all of these sharing tools that
[00:18:11.160]
we have available, we have quite a few different accessibility
[00:18:13.779]
features as well. So again,
[00:18:15.969]
as I mentioned, we do have the ability to translate
[00:18:18.368]
all of our articles. So if you have patrons
[00:18:20.578]
coming in who need a different language for whatever
[00:18:22.799]
they're reading, they can have a translate button,
[00:18:24.920]
which is right here under the title of the
[00:18:27.000]
article,
[00:18:28.809]
you'll see, it gives me the option to choose a translated,
[00:18:31.209]
translated language.
[00:18:33.459]
And it also gives me this other option to set
[00:18:35.559]
an interface language. And I'm going to click into that
[00:18:37.709]
one. So you can see that.
[00:18:39.039]
So what that does is that actually changes,
[00:18:41.170]
let's just click into Spanish,
[00:18:44.380]
all of the tools you'll see here,
[00:18:46.469]
the navigation, the search bar, our explorer
[00:18:48.769]
panel on this right hand side here has
[00:18:50.848]
all changed over to whatever language they chose.
[00:18:53.519]
And this actually follows them throughout the full
[00:18:55.598]
duration of their session. So sometimes
[00:18:58.140]
it's helpful to actually translate right at the beginning.
[00:19:00.519]
You know, if you have a user coming in who needs that
[00:19:02.559]
Spanish navigation, you'll
[00:19:04.729]
see. It's also up top here,
[00:19:07.390]
right where it says Spanish here. If I drop
[00:19:10.118]
that down, I'm just gonna change it back to English
[00:19:14.019]
somewhere there. It is
[00:19:16.588]
because I, I know English
[00:19:18.338]
so they can actually change it at the very top
[00:19:20.410]
of the screen here as well. So they could change it
[00:19:22.459]
by hitting our translate button
[00:19:24.519]
using set interface language or they
[00:19:26.539]
can just go up to where it says English, drop
[00:19:28.838]
it down, choose their language
[00:19:32.469]
and the translate article itself as you would expect
[00:19:34.769]
translates the text of the article here
[00:19:37.348]
and they it does need to be translated each individual
[00:19:39.769]
step. So each new article they find they
[00:19:42.049]
will need to translate. But the interface language
[00:19:44.348]
will stay no matter where they are within
[00:19:46.650]
the resource,
[00:19:49.390]
right next to that translate option, we also have the option
[00:19:51.660]
to increase or decrease spot size
[00:19:53.818]
as needed.
[00:19:56.189]
Next to that, we have some more specific
[00:19:58.729]
display option changes. So we
[00:20:00.739]
could change the background color of the text,
[00:20:03.900]
we can change the font and we do have a dyslexia
[00:20:06.160]
font which some patrons find
[00:20:08.368]
handy. For me, it's a little bit harder
[00:20:10.410]
to read. But um we usually we have a
[00:20:12.420]
few different options here
[00:20:14.430]
and then I can also change my line letter and word
[00:20:16.608]
spacing.
[00:20:18.670]
So again, really kind of
[00:20:20.699]
editing how your patrons are seeing
[00:20:22.799]
this content and how they're reading it. So
[00:20:24.979]
enhancing that accessibility and letting them choose
[00:20:27.118]
what works best for them. So instead of saying, you know,
[00:20:29.390]
do you want this to be a large print or a regular
[00:20:31.439]
print? It's what color background do you want?
[00:20:33.539]
Which of these fonts works best for you, you know, what,
[00:20:36.039]
what doesn't give you a headache?
[00:20:38.098]
They'll be able to kind of navigate and choose that
[00:20:40.828]
and once they make their preferences, this actually
[00:20:43.078]
stays for the session. So when they click
[00:20:45.239]
into new articles, they're going to have this
[00:20:47.459]
kind of orangish background, this
[00:20:50.059]
larger spacing between words
[00:20:52.479]
and letters and then this font here
[00:20:54.618]
as well.
[00:20:56.118]
I'm going to actually jump back to default though
[00:20:58.250]
just by clicking back into my display options
[00:21:01.068]
and hitting back to default settings.
[00:21:05.969]
So right next to our display options here,
[00:21:08.199]
we also have our listen tool and we're gonna
[00:21:10.219]
hit it to open it, but I'm not gonna play it.
[00:21:12.789]
So when you hit it to open it, you get this little toolbar
[00:21:15.250]
dropped down here and it's going to read through the
[00:21:17.299]
full article for me all the way from
[00:21:19.380]
the title to the very end. If there is
[00:21:21.400]
an image with a caption, it reads through the caption
[00:21:23.640]
for me as well
[00:21:25.858]
and it does read in whatever language this article
[00:21:28.199]
is translated to. So if your patron translated
[00:21:30.459]
to Spanish first and then
[00:21:32.568]
hit the listen button, it's going to read this full article
[00:21:34.890]
to them in Spanish, which is another nice
[00:21:37.130]
feature to increase that accessibility.
[00:21:40.140]
And you'll see they have a few options on this little
[00:21:42.299]
toolbar that popped up with this little hamburger
[00:21:44.739]
icon. So
[00:21:47.029]
I can choose to download an MP3 if I want
[00:21:49.130]
to or I've got a few different settings
[00:21:51.299]
here that are related to highlighting.
[00:21:53.828]
So right now as it reads through, you'll see
[00:21:55.969]
it's highlighting the sentence it's reading
[00:21:58.289]
and then it's highlighting the word it's reading in a different
[00:22:00.479]
color. So I can edit that just
[00:22:02.640]
however I need to, to make this kind
[00:22:04.759]
of easier to understand.
[00:22:13.400]
Now, the last tool I want to talk about is our highlights
[00:22:15.868]
and notes tool. Um And this again is
[00:22:17.910]
going to be really helpful for students. Your
[00:22:20.469]
entrepreneurs may benefit from this as well if
[00:22:22.568]
they kind of prefer that organized research
[00:22:24.739]
where they highlight the most important things. but
[00:22:27.068]
it's really simple, you just click and drag over a
[00:22:29.088]
piece of content you think is important,
[00:22:32.039]
just choose a color if I want to annotate
[00:22:34.348]
this, you know, interesting
[00:22:37.750]
use for my plan. Maybe
[00:22:41.930]
I can go through and I can highlight anything I think is important
[00:22:44.219]
and I can highlight as much
[00:22:46.279]
or as little text as I want. I can use
[00:22:48.318]
multiple colors here to really
[00:22:50.400]
kind of mark up this document to find
[00:22:52.759]
the important bits of content
[00:22:55.479]
and these highlights and notes are session based.
[00:22:57.549]
So if your patrons do mark up their documents,
[00:23:00.269]
you know, bring all of the key points
[00:23:02.598]
forward, you wanna make sure they get this out of
[00:23:04.670]
the platform before they sign off today
[00:23:07.108]
and or before they sign off and they can do
[00:23:09.259]
that by sending over to their drives or emailing
[00:23:11.588]
or downloading or printing it will hold on to
[00:23:13.689]
these highlights and notes here as well.
[00:23:16.660]
So just make sure before they, you know, get
[00:23:18.729]
up and leave or before they close their browser,
[00:23:21.289]
anything, they highlighted anything they took notes
[00:23:23.400]
on, they have to get it out of there first.
[00:23:27.640]
And all of the highlighted notes that we take also
[00:23:29.799]
appear under this highlighted notes button up
[00:23:31.858]
top here. My last tool in this little
[00:23:34.189]
toolbar
[00:23:35.949]
so I can click view all highlights and notes
[00:23:37.979]
here. And
[00:23:40.059]
now this is kind of organizing what I've highlighted
[00:23:42.279]
for me. So it's showing me the document I highlighted,
[00:23:45.348]
it's showing me the actual text that's
[00:23:47.519]
been highlighted, the color I used
[00:23:49.670]
as well as any notes that I took here.
[00:23:52.509]
And you'll notice at the very bottom, we also have a bibliography.
[00:23:55.949]
So if I were to go through my session and
[00:23:58.118]
say highlight, you know, three or four
[00:24:00.309]
articles, I found interesting things in all
[00:24:02.729]
of the highlights are going to appear here on this one
[00:24:04.769]
page and it will look just like this,
[00:24:06.858]
they'll all be separated based on what document
[00:24:09.199]
they're in.
[00:24:10.029]
And then it'll show the colors,
[00:24:12.338]
the actual text that was highlighted
[00:24:14.380]
in the notes I took. And then the bibliography
[00:24:16.979]
will just continue to grow at the very bottom of the page.
[00:24:21.130]
So this is really nice. If your patrons are
[00:24:23.328]
looking at large numbers of documents,
[00:24:25.709]
they don't want to send, you know, 10 documents
[00:24:28.019]
over to their drive. It's a little much for them.
[00:24:30.239]
They can instead highlight the important things
[00:24:32.289]
of each of their articles and then send this page
[00:24:34.479]
over to the drive. Instead, you'll see. I have
[00:24:36.709]
my same send to up top here
[00:24:38.969]
so I can send over to Google or onedrive.
[00:24:41.650]
I can also download and print this page here.
[00:24:44.189]
What's nice is if I decided to send this over to
[00:24:46.279]
my drive, this stay is the hyperlink
[00:24:48.439]
here. So I can actually jump from my drive
[00:24:51.108]
right back to this article that I highlighted if I want
[00:24:53.229]
to read the full thing.
[00:24:55.880]
So this is a nice way for them to kind of organize
[00:24:57.910]
themselves while they're still on the resource.
[00:25:00.199]
They haven't even moved out yet. They're still in the resource
[00:25:02.989]
and they can get themselves nice and organized
[00:25:05.029]
here. No,
[00:25:09.809]
I haven't seen any questions come in at all in the Q
[00:25:11.959]
and A but I do want to make sure I'm hitting all of them.
[00:25:14.199]
So does anyone have any questions about what
[00:25:16.289]
we went through?
the content,
[00:25:18.368]
the workflows, the tools, anything
[00:25:20.880]
like that.
[00:25:23.368]
And if you're typing right now, I'm going to switch back over
[00:25:26.608]
to my slides because I do have a bit of
[00:25:28.630]
wrap up information for you.
[00:25:30.930]
So again, if you are asking a question in the Q
[00:25:33.009]
and A keep typing, that's totally fine.
[00:25:35.118]
But I wanna give you some contact information. So if
[00:25:37.219]
you have questions that you don't think of while you're on
[00:25:39.328]
the session. But you think of it after feel
[00:25:41.880]
free to reach out to me. My email
[00:25:43.939]
is just [email protected]
[00:25:47.140]
If you want to get a little more specific in how you
[00:25:49.199]
can use this with your learning community or with
[00:25:51.390]
your library,
[00:25:52.608]
you can reach out to your customer success manager.
[00:25:54.858]
They've got some great best practices.
[00:25:56.890]
They work with libraries and
[00:25:59.239]
entrepreneurial programs throughout the country.
[00:26:01.400]
You can reach out to them directly if you've worked
[00:26:03.439]
with them before or just send an email
[00:26:05.598]
to [email protected]
[00:26:08.189]
and we'll forward you to the correct person.
[00:26:10.380]
If you're interested right now in gale business entrepreneurship,
[00:26:13.049]
but you don't have it yet. You don't know who your sales
[00:26:15.239]
rep is. You can go to support.gale.com/repfinder
[00:26:18.759]
You can enter your information, we'll forward you
[00:26:20.769]
to the correct person
[00:26:22.019]
or again, if you know who it is already reach out to them
[00:26:24.088]
directly.
[00:26:25.199]
And I do want to also mention our support site.
[00:26:27.500]
So if you need some additional materials
[00:26:29.969]
training, marketing, technical,
[00:26:32.269]
uh you know, you wanna look at another webinar, you want
[00:26:34.279]
to see
[00:26:36.000]
what sort of uh promotional material we
[00:26:38.108]
have for social media, let's say all
[00:26:40.140]
of that is found on our support site, which is
[00:26:42.209]
support.gale.com. So
[00:26:44.400]
before you do any of your own training, before
[00:26:46.529]
you do any of your own promoting. Take
[00:26:48.588]
a look at the support site. We might have something built out
[00:26:50.689]
for you already. So you don't have to kind of re invent
[00:26:52.789]
the wheel.
[00:26:58.098]
No, I did save a couple minutes here for questions,
[00:27:00.250]
but again, I haven't seen any pop up, so
[00:27:02.588]
I'll go ahead and end our session a couple minutes early.
[00:27:05.229]
I appreciate everyone for being on the line and
[00:27:07.269]
hopefully we'll see all of you in future sessions.
[00:27:09.699]
Enjoy your day.
