Sharepoint User's Guide

Microsoft's Windows SharePoint Services can be overwhelming to new users, and this quick and easy guide not only shows them what they need to know to start using SharePoint effectively, but how to make the most of it. SharePoint enables organizations to create web sites for information sharing and collaboration- sites where teams and individuals can capture and share ideas, and work together on documents, tasks, contacts, and events among themselves or with partners and customers. With a format designed to help readers find answers quickly, the SharePoint User's Guide explains how to access sites that are already set up, how to create new sites, and how to personalize sites. The book also shows readers ways to use the document and picture libraries for adding and editing content, how to add discussion boards and surveys to a site, and how they can enhance security.
