摘要

在2014年，Springshare引入了一个新的LibGuides布局选项。除了传统的水平标签布局(顶部导航)，LibGuides设计师现在可以在页面的左上角选择垂直排列的标签(侧边导航)。就像主办这项研究的大学一样，许多学校都在不同程度上将LibGuides从顶部导航改为侧边导航。为了更好地理解这种迁移背后的研究，北爱荷华大学的研究人员在图书馆学和计算机科学领域对导航菜单位置偏好和导航菜单功效进行了全面的文献综述。本综述确定了在图书馆文献中不常报道的一组复杂而多样的结果。为了衡量LibGuides向侧边导航的迁移程度，本研究调查了2019年和2021年夏季美国462所大学图书馆中访问量最大的10个LibGuides的导航布局。虽然大多数研究型大学的LibGuides现在都是侧边导航格式，但侧边导航的采用率因学术机构的规模和类型而有显著差异。

To the Side, to the Side: Academic Libraries and LibGuides Layout Adoption

ABSTRACT In 2014, Springshare introduced a new LibGuides layout option. In addition to the traditional horizontally-tabbed layout (top navigation), LibGuides designers now have the option of vertically-arrayed tabs on the upper left-hand side of the page (side navigation). Like the university hosting this study, schools have, to varying degrees, shifted their LibGuides toward side navigation and away from top navigation. To better understand the research behind this migration, researchers at the University of Northern Iowa conducted a thorough literature review on navigation menu location preferences and navigation menu efficacy within the field of librarianship and computer science. This review identified a complex and diverse set of results not often reported in the library literature. To gauge the extent of migration toward side navigation in LibGuides, this study investigated the navigation layout of the ten most visited LibGuides at 462 academic libraries throughout the United States during the summers of 2019 and 2021. While the majority of the LibGuides reviewed at research universities are now in side navigation format, the adoption rate of side navigation in LibGuides differed dramatically by the size and type of academic institution.

期刊介绍： The Reference Librarian aims to be a standard resource for everyone interested in the practice of reference work, from library and information science students to practicing reference librarians and full-time researchers. It enables readers to keep up with the changing face of reference, presenting new ideas for consideration. The Reference Librarian publishes articles about all aspects of the reference process, some research-based and some applied. Current trends and traditional questions are equally welcome. Many articles concern new electronic tools and resources, best practices in instruction and reference service, analysis of marketing of services, and effectiveness studies.
