Tables have been updated to resize with screen dimensions to prevent 2D scrolling on mobile devices. Please test your tables function similar to below.

Here's a quick guide to updating to the new template. For full guidance and to ensure compatibility, visit: Update the template.

From Type/Group select the group that corresponds with your area. If you are unsure which group to use please contact your team's Library Online Development Group member.

1. From the menu select Guide Navigation Layout

2. From the template options select SIDE NAV 2025

We've recently implemented a global navigation system, updating the header, navbar, and footer. This change improves user experience by:

• Providing consistent navigation across all guides and pages.
• Placing items in more intuitive locations.
• Reducing menu clutter.
• Relocating some content to the header and footer.

Additionally, the account login has been moved to the top right corner to align with standard web design, and the accessibility statement is now located in the footer.

Adding navbar links

Because the navbar is globally applied, the ability to add links has been removed at user level. To have a link added to a dropdown menu, please visit Request a Nav-Link.

Future developments

We plan to review menu items and links in the future to improve the user experience.

In the coming months, we will begin a project to develop an image library for library staff. This library will provide high-quality images for use in both digital and print materials.

If you have any suggestions or any great images, please email Tom Flanagan.
