Lorraine forwarded the following message from Aimée Herridge to USS:
... new UNOG Library Resource Guides can be accessed from anyone at the iSeek level now - http://lib-100734.unog.un.org/unsgwiki/doku.php?id=start
They are also accessible via our Electronic Resources iSeek page - http://iseek.un.org/webpgdept883_2.asp?dept=883
Please note that these are still being developed. The most complete guides are United Nations, Human Rights, Disarmament and Social Affairs. We've conducted user testing sessions with our disarmament and social affairs researchers and received really positive feedback. Staff were happy to find resources in their field in the one place and were also impressed that we chose wiki software and would be encouraging interaction. Now we are completing the other guides, working on standardization (in hindsight, we should have developed templates and added content for each subject), translating french versions and then promoting the guides. Our long term vision is to share them with other UN system libraries and then, the world!
Viola Voss is the coordinator of this project and if you have any questions about the project, I know she would be happy to hear from you.
