Leeds in the mid 1990’s
Pre Google Yahoo was a directory site Subject gateways in their infancy
Developed a ROADS database to list subject databases and websites
Broken down to a subject or even module level

2006
Server needed replacement Software no longer supported Database indexes full
Workload issues of maintaining links Databases now integrated into our
catalogue Wanted to avoid flat webpages of links
Approached RDN as they were re-launching as Intute for advice
![Page 16: Creating web guides for a library portal Jackie Wickham – Intute jacqueline.wickham@nottingham.ac.uk Martin Gill – University of Leeds m.r.gill@leeds.ac.uk](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cca5503460f94992f67/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Pilot Project
To use MyIntute to embed Intute records in our website
Sample subjects: Education, Law, Engineering, Dentistry, East Asian Studies
Looked at: Workload Availability of Intute records Technical integration
![Page 17: Creating web guides for a library portal Jackie Wickham – Intute jacqueline.wickham@nottingham.ac.uk Martin Gill – University of Leeds m.r.gill@leeds.ac.uk](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cca5503460f94992f67/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Project results
Workload MyIntute very quick and easy to use
Availability of records Most subjects had few problems Searching Intute found us better websites in
many cases Some issues of scope, some language issues
Technical integration Accessibility issues
