Editorial method

How we choose, check and correct.

What we do so that a resource we recommend really works, what we do not do, and what you can do if you find a mistake. We only describe what is genuinely done today.

Who writes and who reviews

It is written and reviewed by Maider García Llorente, a teacher of Primary Education, Special Education (PT) and English. There is more about her at About inklui.

There is not yet any external review of pieces. When there is, it will carry the reviewer’s name and their written permission. We will not write “reviewed by specialists” without saying who.

The method, step by step

  1. We start from a real need. Requests that arrive by email set the order of what gets prepared.
  2. We look for the source before writing. A tool or guide rests on research or legislation you can look up.
  3. It is written and the author reviews it before publication.
  4. It goes out in Spanish and English. Basque goes out once a person has approved it.
  5. What changes is noted with its date in What’s new.

To look for new resources, watch official websites and check links we use automated support tools. They suggest and flag; nothing enters inklui or is published without a person approving it.

How we choose and check an external resource

Today there are 345 resources and 337 books linked. This is what we look at:

  • We open the link and read what is there. A response is not enough: it can respond with something else.
  • We check the site has not changed hands. If a link redirects to another domain, we open it in a browser before deciding.
  • We check the real cost matches what the entry says: free or paid.
  • We look at the licence. Linking is always possible; showing a document inside inklui only if it has an open licence or is a free institutional publication.
  • We note who stands behind the content: peer-reviewed, thesis, legal text, institutional publication or published book. What cannot be classified carries no label.
  • Before saying something is down, we open it by hand. A server that blocks a program is not a broken link.

A real case: what our own audit found

On 26 September 2026 we checked all 685 links in the catalogue at the time (348 resources and 337 books). We tell it because it builds more trust than hiding it.

  • A resource in the “Families” category, about dyslexia, no longer belonged to the association: its domain redirected to a gambling site. We confirmed it by opening it in a browser and removed it.
  • 344 of the 348 resource entries said “free”, including a communication app that costs hundreds of euros. We corrected seven that promised free what was paid.
  • Of the 685 links, 579 opened, 8 returned a 404 error and 3 had expired domains; the rest blocked programs or could not be settled without opening them by hand.

What the audit left pending, and we acknowledge: the catalogue only distinguishes “free” and “paid”, with nothing in between for things that have a free and a paid version; and many check dates come from a joint review, not from checking one by one.

What “verified” means in the library

Each book has an entry with author, year, link, cost, licence, evidence label and a check date. “Verified” means, at the very least, that the link was checked and led to the book announced.

It does not mean an expert has reviewed the content, nor that it is the best book on its subject, nor that the link will stay alive for ever. And today the date on many entries comes from a joint review, not from an individual check. Making every date mean a check is a pending improvement.

Sources policy

  • 35 tools cite their scientific source at the foot, in an “Evidence” block with authors, year and publication. The wider basis is on the Scientific basis page.
  • Pictograms are from ARASAAC (author Sergio Palao, owned by the Government of Aragon) under a CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 licence. We credit them wherever they are shown, including in print, which is why tools that use pictograms are free and not sold.
  • Legislation is cited by name (for example Decree 78/2024 or the LOMLOE) and points to the official text. It is information, not legal advice.
  • In “Out of school”, each organisation carries the date it was checked by opening its website. If something has changed, what the organisation says prevails.
  • We regularly go through a fixed list of official websites (education authorities, ARASAAC, CEAPAT, INTEF, associations) to spot news.

Corrections policy

If you see something wrong, out of date or broken, write to info@inklui.com with the subject “[Corrección]”, the page address and what is wrong.

We check it and, if it applies, correct it. We acknowledge every message within 5 working days and, if something needs correcting, we do it within 15.

What is published today: the change is noted with its date in What’s new, alongside other improvements.

What does not exist yet: a dedicated register of corrections saying what the page said, what it says now and when it changed. It is a pending improvement.

Content review and expiry

The rule: anything that depends on legislation, deadlines, grants or prices should carry a review date; timeless material (a tool, a glossary) rests on its source, not on a date.

Today this page, Accessibility, Start here, What’s new and, organisation by organisation, Out of school show their review date. Blog articles show their publication date; the “Reviewed on…” stamp for those dealing with legislation or grants does not exist yet.

What we do not do

  • We do not diagnoseNor do we replace health professionals, school counsellors or therapists. inklui is educational support.
  • We do not charge to be listedNobody pays for a resource to appear, rise or fall.
  • No advertising, no affiliatesNo commission links and no banners.
  • We do not ask for children’s dataWhat you type into the tools stays on your device and does not reach us, except on the whiteboard with a code, where no photos or health data of children should be entered.
  • No unapproved BasqueA person approves Basque before it goes out. Until then, the page shows in Spanish with a notice.
