In the previous lesson, you learned about the four main actions you can use to edit elements within the library map: move, duplicate, edit, and delete. You also explored real-world scenarios where each action might be needed.
In this lesson, you will build on what you've learned and discover how to add internal and external links to the library map, particularly the digital map, to enhance interactivity.
If you haven’t done so yet, please download the PowerPoint file that contains the editable library map. As you go through the lesson, try to follow along by editing the map in PowerPoint using the steps demonstrated in the video.
Let’s review the two (2) types of link you can add to the library map. Before you click the plus (+) icon for a specific action, take a moment to recall the steps needed to perform it. After reviewing the steps and scenario, try to think of another real-world situation in the library where this action would be applicable.
Steps:
Set up button
Set up destination slide
Link them to each other
Example Scenario:
A new study booth was added in the lower level.
Steps:
Copy the link or URL of the site you want to link
Select the text or object
Right click > link > existing file or webpage > paste link > OK
Example Scenario:
There’s a new scheduling link for the meeting pod.
Let’s put your new skills to the test! Answer the following questions to review what you’ve learned in this lesson.
In this lesson, you learned about the two (2) types of links you can add in the library map: internal links and external links. You also studied scenarios that would require each type of link.
In the next lesson, you will move on to the next step in the process of editing the library map. Specifically, you will learn how to attach the new versions of the map—created using the actions you learned in this lesson—to update the brochure.
