Join us at the next Content Community event to get a checklist of regular website maintenance jobs that content editors can do. We will go through how to do the tasks and how they contribute to good user experience. Examples include how to find and address broken links, establishing a content review schedule, and things you should test regularly.

Please complete a one-to-one catching session by booking a 1 hour meeting with Rinku Raina rr541@cam.ac.uk.
