Hi Coral,
Here at Carleton, our guides are part of our library website. We use Drupal and have created a Guides content type that uses Paragraphs to create 3 different styles of content (key resources, accordions, and just basic text), depending on what the guide creator wants. Folks who have used LibGuides in other libraries sometimes miss certain features, but it hasn't stopped people from creating way too many guides!
You can see examples here: https://library.carleton.ca/guides. Happy to chat further 🙂
Best,
Shelley

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Do you use LibGuides? No? Let's chat!
[External Email]
Hello!
Our library is taking a deep look at how (and if) we develop and support LibGuides from Springshare. We are curious about academic libraries that do NOT use LibGuides. If your institution uses a different tool or process for the functions commonly hosted on LibGuides, we would love to connect with you!
Thanks!
