Hi, Mary, I mean the pages that you see after you log in to LibApps (or an individual product, like LibGuides). The pages with the yellow banner across the top where all the settings for the product are located. The font sizes on the admin pages are different for different products. The  font size on the admin pages for LibGuides is small, whereas the font size on admin pages of the other products is large. I'd like to make them all the same. I also check the box that says not to include custom JS/CSS code on Guide edit pages. Thanks!
Hi Nathan!  Then yes, you'd probably have to target the backend CSS and it is different from the public facing CSS.  We've got some variability in font sizes with our backend, but for me, it's not worth it to spend the time going through every selector.  As long as it's easy enough for librarians to see and it's consistent on the public facing side, I haven't really worried about it.

For context, this is what our backend pages look like.[Image: example.PNG]
