About the Access Guide for Branches Template

This template provides a standard outline with empty fields for the common information to include when creating an access guide for a library branch. This template should be substituted, not transcluded, so you can quickly copy the fields but still easily remove those that do not apply, as well as update the content to make it your own. It should be added as the very first line on pages. Please note that you will not be able to edit the template content until you have saved the page.

How to Use

1. Insert the following code to the first line of the page: {{subst:Access Guide for Branches}}
2. Click save page
3. Click edit to update your content
