  • To add more content (or reorder content sections), click on the "Add/Reorder" button at the bottom left of the box.

About Box Types

LibGuides 1 had lots of different box types, depending on what content you wanted to use. LibGuides 2 has just 4 kinds of boxes.

To learn more about each type of box, click its name at the left.

We're no longer using LibGuides' built-in Profile Boxes.
Instead, we're using Librarian and Library Boxes with the "People and Location Entry" system in Adobe CQ/AEM.
