The New Course Reserves

Course Resource Lists is our new Course Reserves platform and collaborative tool that is located in Canvas and integrated with Educat+, our new library catalog. Among the benefits of the new platform are:

Easy searching and retrieval of resources from the library catalog, avoiding manual updates by the instructor and maximum use of library resources
Flexibility to shape and refresh syllabi with or without templates
Retention and roll over of lists to subsequent academic terms
Direct communication with the library from within the Course Resource List with regard to acquisitions, links, and more
Information about and communication with students from within Course Resource Lists

Workshops, tutorials, and individual consultations are being offered by the Gottesman Libraries and Digital Futures Institute with information posted to the library news, Canvas, and message boards, and also sent via email to academic department administrators and program coordinators. The next workshop will be held online, Wednesday, March 23rd, 3-4pm.

Important Dates:

February 21 - May 18, 2022 - Monthly Course Resource Lists workshops

March 21, 2022 - Course Resource Lists go live

May 19, 2022 - Summer A begins fuller roll out of Course Resource Lists

In preparation for Summer A & B 2022, we encourage submitting print reserve book requests as soon as possible due to longer delivery times; printed materials are now taking an average of 4-6 weeks to arrive.
