Adding a new resource: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:06, 22 April 2010

Through the Clicklaw contributor site, you can add a resource that is from your organization.

Log in as a Clicklaw contributor.
Click “Add resources” on the contributor homepage or in the left menu bar of the contributor site. This brings up the “Add a resource” form.
Complete the From section to indicate who produced your resource. If applicable, select a collaborator(s) from the drop-down list.
Select one section of Clicklaw that your resource best fits in. Since resources can only appear in a single section of Clicklaw, it is important to identify the primary purpose of your resource. See Clicklaw website's sections for help choosing the suitable section.
Describe your resource by entering the title, URL (the website address), and some other details.
Categorize your resource based on categories from the Clicklaw taxonomy, and tags that you type in.
- Select topics/subtopics and add tags.
- Select resource type and media formats.
Select any additional media formats. If your resource is available in another media format, you can include a link to the additional format. For example, your organization may have produced a video that is based on a PDF guide that covers the same content.
Select any additional language. If your resource is available in a language other than English, you can include a link to the additional language version(s) of your resource.
Once you have completed the form, you can Publish your resource or Save as Draft.
