Arcola Public Library District
Welcome!
If you're seeing this text instead of the web site you were expecting, the owner of this web site has just installed Plone. Do not contact the Plone Team or the Plone support channels about this.
Get started
Before you start exploring your newly created Plone site, please do the following:
- Make sure you are logged in as an admin/manager user. You should have a Site Setup entry in the user menu.
- Set up your mail server. Plone needs a valid SMTP server to verify users and send out password reminders.
- Decide what security level you want on your site. Allow self registration, password policies, and more.
Get comfortable
After that, we suggest you do one or more of the following:
- Get the latest news about Plone.
- Read the documentation.
- Follow a training.
- Explore the available add-ons for Plone.
- Read or subscribe to the support channels.
Make it your own
Plone has many settings to make it do what you want. Some examples include:
- Try out a different theme, either pick from the included ones, or one of the available themes from plone.org. Make sure the theme is compatible with the version of Plone you are currently using.
- Decide what kind of workflow you want in your site. The default is typical for a public web site; if you want to use Plone as a closed intranet or extranet, you can choose a different workflow.
- By default, Plone uses a visual editor for content. If you prefer text-based syntax and/or wiki syntax, you can change this in the markup control panel
- …and many more settings are available in the Site Setup.

Credits
Many people along the way have contributed to the success of Plinkit. First and foremost, thanks go to Eva Miller, the original designer and creator of Plinkit and to the Multnomah County Library who originally sponsored the grant that funded the original project.
Special thanks to the Plone community at large who have been supportive of this project in so many ways.
Plinkit owes a big "Thank You" to the Oregon Department of Education who contributed the original content for the "Kid's Corner", "Middle Schoolers", and "High Schoolers" section of the Plinkit template. Content for these sections was derived from Castillo's Corner and is locally maintained by your public library.
Sharon Morris (Colorado State Library) also contributed additional content for the Español section the Homework and Research Sites page.
The Oregon Plinkit Project participates in the Plinkit Collaborative -- a group of several states that use localized versions of Plinkit for their public libraries. Oregon libraries using Plinkit benefit greatly through the Oregon State Library's work with a cooperative group of librarians, libraries, and resources for further Plinkit development.
And last but not least, Plinkit would not exist if it were not for the Institute of Museum and Library Services which funds Plinkit (in whole or in part) through the Library Services and Technology Act.
