Partner with a Librarian

Librarians in the LMS (Canvas or Blackboard)

When added to a class in the LMS (e.g., Canvas, Blackboard), embedded librarians can:

  • Create and/or embed research support content for students (e.g., any of the resources included in the Asynchronous Instructional Support).
  • Link to digital resources (Ebooks, articles, streaming videos, required or suggested readings, etc.).
  • Link to library help (e.g., chat, FAQs, research guides, etc.).
  • Communicate directly with students through announcements or discussion boards.

Grading Policy

Librarians will not be responsible for formally grading students' coursework or assignments while embedded in online classes. Grading of information literacy assignments will remain the responsibility of the instructor of record; however, librarians can help design rubrics and/or offer additional advice on what success looks like for library-created assignments.
