Blocks are nice, but they don't solve all of your site organization problems. The Panels Module solves some of these problems. If you have a UCB Library Drupal site, go to the modules list and turn on the mini-panels, panel nodes and panels. Look at the information given for each of the module settings and make sure you've turned on the other required modules.

To get started with Panels view the tutorial video and the following links. I'm directing you to Panels 2 documentations, even though Panels 3 is the latest version. The Panels 2 site has the most documentation and is applicable to what you'll be doing with Panels 3.

• Getting started with panels
• Mini-panels
• Panel nodes
• Panel pages
• Oregon State video on creating pages with panels
