Free SharePoint Server 2013 Resources Part 4
By Vlad Catrinescu Microsoft MVP and MCT · Pluralsight Author
Every month I do an article about all the resources I found online about SharePoint 2013. These free Resources come from Microsoft directly or from other partners but unfortunately not a lot of people check regularly and sometimes they are well hidden.
I am happy to present you Part 4 of the “Free SharePoint Server 2013 Resources” series that gives you all the resources for the month of January. The Highlights are Keith Mayer’s guide to Building a SharePoint 2013 Lab in the cloud FOR FREE ,Microsoft released new versions of the popular Test Lab Guides! They will be a very good way to study SharePoint 2013 until the official books come out and last but not least, a free e-book: 101 New Features In SharePoint 2013 from LearningSharePoint
