The first section of the tour will explain the different ways you can move through the OWL. We'll start with the homepage, and then we'll continue on to the header and footer information that appears on each page of the OWL, beyond the home page.
The home page contains drop down menus for quick site navigation, information about the various services that the Writing Lab and the OWL provide, contact information for the Writing Lab, a search box for searching the web site, a subscription form for the Purdue OWL News. Each service is explained in the table below.

Alrighty, so that's the home page. Learn it, use it, love it. If you want to continue on to a quick discussion about the header and footers, go ahead;these are very helpful in finding your way around our OWL. However, if you feel like you can figure that stuff out on your own, then move on into a sample of our well-known instructional handouts.
