The reference document for the Learn page is the “literature summary” spreadsheet the Resources folder of the We Count Teams site: https://ocaduniversity.sharepoint.com/teams/Team_WeCount/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?OR=teams&action=edit&sourcedoc={61E45726-0A9C-41FD-AFEA-0CFDEDD4EE07} <https://ocaduniversity.sharepoint.com/teams/Team_WeCount/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?OR=teams&action=edit&sourcedoc=%7b61E45726-0A9C-41FD-AFEA-0CFDEDD4EE07%7d>

We envision the option of further filtering using the items in Column H. I’d also like an advanced/make your own search that would enable searching with the items in column K or key word search (using our text fields in the annotated bilbliography tab). Date fields are an important add.

>>>> Currently we have 4 categories under 'Learn' and couple of resources under each category. 
>>>>  
>>>> Based on the design for the “Learn” page (see screenshot below), learning resources will have new “Topic” and “Publication Type” values. It means we cannot use the same WordPress interface for adding news and views posts to add learning resources. A custom WordPress interface needs to be created for it.
>>>>  
>>>> It would be nice to think about other than “Topic” and “Publication Type”, are there other new fields need to be associated with each resource and appear on the custom interface? 
>>>>  
>>>> Ned and I chatted about it this morning. Ned said in the platform coop, there are 2 dates: publication date and date that a resource is added to the library. The reason for having separate dates is sometimes publication dates are unknown or only the year or year/month is known. So the publication date has 3 separate fields for “year”, “month”, “day”. They can all be filled or left empty. It’s helpful to think about details like this.

We realized that we wanted the 'Learn' page to be more like a Resource/Library for Inclusive AI. But currently there are also resources related to this under our ‘News’ page. Should we just consider including the 'News' under the 'Learn' page?
