In an effort to go green we are no longer providing training manuals for this workshop. The Gato support site offers text resources to help editors as they create and manage their content. Visit the support site at http://gato.its.txstate.edu/
Note: If you are a Mac user and have your own laptop, you are more than welcome to bring it along. Otherwise, the lab we will be using only has Windows machines.
