The State Library of Kansas has some very tech-savvy staffers. They created our very own iGoogle Gadget – which you can use too.
iGoogle is a personalized start page. It can be used on your desktop or as a personalized web page that you can access from any computer by logging into your Google account. iGoogle uses gadgets to populate your personal page.
The State Library’s gadget allows you to search the resources of the State Library just as you would from our home page only you launch the search from your iGoogle personal page.
To add the widget:
Login to your iGoogle account.
Click on “Add Stuff” in the upper right side corner under the banner.
On the Add Stuff page, search for “State Library of Kansas”. When you see the gadget, click on the “Add it now” button and it will be added to your iGoogle desktop.
Lots of folks seem to like it – we have over 100 users! Check it out.
Thanks to Eric Gustafson and Cindi Hickey for their work on our gadget.
