Wherever possible use these steps to reduce the overall number of course guides:
1. Create one master course guide
2. Add sub-pages with instructor or term specific content
3. Update the course guide each term to remove sub-pages that are no longer relevant
4. Consider including course-specific content as sub-pages on the main program-level guide (sub-pages can be found by title in the "search all guides" box but will not show up in the course guides list)
Course Guide: guides for specific courses
Subject Guide: guides for specific programs/departments (displays as Guides by Program in some menus)
General Purpose Guide: citation and plagiarism guides (displays as Citation Guides)
Topic Guide: for topics that do not fit into one of the above (can be tagged to display in lists for a program)
Internal Guide: for staff use
Template Guide: for templates to reuse for later guides
