FREE Webinar: Gale’s New Responsive Design

In response to extensive user testing and usage data, Gale is introducing a number of enhancements to its most widely-used product lines (InfoTrac and In Context) including the optimization for mobile devices through responsive design. The adoption of a common design and toolset across all products will provide a unified experience as researchers move from one resource to the next, while other changes will enhance accessibility for those with disabilities and increase usability overall for desktop and mobile researchers. Join us for a webinar that will explore this new responsive design that provides an elegant user experience, supports user workflow, and improves performance. For a preview, check out http://solutions.cengage.com/enhancements2015/. A continuing education certificate will be provided upon completion of the webinar.
