Module Glad We Didn't Say Banana: You, Your Learning Management System, and Your Library

Tuesday, May 18, 2021 | 4:30PM–5:15PM ET
Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Live Session

A campus-wide shift to the Canvas LMS seemed like an ideal opportunity for the library to reach new audiences. Two librarians organized a team to make LMS modules for instructors to import into their courses. Faculty librarians chose the topics, each team member volunteered for the work they could feasibly accomplish, deadlines were well in advance of launch date with padding, there was a rigorous editorial process, and the campus IT was a willing and engaged partner. Presenters will discuss partnerships, process, and instructional content specially designed for first-year students in our initial launch. Participants will examine our case study and imagine how to integrate the library into the LMS at their own institution.
