Abstract
In the fall of 2015, the librarians at Tidewater Community College decided use LibGuides in order to redesign the library homepage. Using LibGuides offers librarians the opportunity to quickly and easily edit the homepage and maintain control rather than outsourcing web control to an outside developer. The benefits of using LibGuides as a design platform are discussed, as well as its limitations and challenges.
