It's the nature of the web that users may reach your guide from many different access points, not necessarily those you have created. So every page needs to be named and organized with the assumption that the user hasn't seen any of the other pages in the guide yet.
For many subject guide owners, there's always the big question of what to put on the home page. What do you do when all the things you have to say are already covered by the various "titled" pages?
Here's a good rule of thumb. 50% of your readers should be able to find all the information they want on the home page. If they can't, you're wasting their time forcing them to hunt for no good reason.
Some options for home page content you may not have considered:
Some things to avoid:
Whatever you do, remember that your guide's home page is prime real estate, and that many users will judge whether or not it's worth going to the other pages based on what they find there.
In order to simplify navigation across guides, the Research Guides Management Team has developed the following rules for page and box titles.
Try to avoid creating pages titled Other, and More, or Miscellaneous. In regular texts there's some expectation that the reader will keep turning pages and eventually get to the "miscellaneous" information no matter what you call it. But in hypertext, readers jump about. Without at least some indication of what's on the other side of a link, your readers have little reason to click on it to see what's there. Anything you put onto an Other page will only be seen by people who are bored and have time on their hands.
Unfortunately there's no easy solution to this problem. There probably are items of interest which just don't fit neatly into the other categories you've defined but which are disparate enough to lack any easy way to describe. Your best bet is to simply shoehorn those links into other places in your guide.
