Q

How is LibGuides pronounced?

A
Answer:

There seem to be 2 popular pronunciations at the moment.  The first one is Lib (in this case "lib" rhymes with bribe) Guides.  The second one is Lib (rhymes with "bib") Guides.  The first pronunciation seems to have come about by people taking the "lib" from the word "library" and attaching it to the word Guides.  The second seems to come from people who just say the word as they would if it was a free standing word. 

It really doesn't matter how you say it as long as you use LibGuides!

1.Straight from the horse's mouth, we at Springshare pronounce it "Lib"... as in liberation. But the issue has taken a life of its own, and we find it very amusing!
