Are you an instructor that uses library books or articles as readings for your courses? Join us for a virtual DIY Course Reserves workshop this Friday, September 19 from 12:30 p.m. to 1:15 p.m.
The University Library has made it easier than ever to add online articles or print books to course reserve "reading lists" using a platform called Leganto. Leganto reading lists can be embedded into Canvas courses using an LTI and can be reused easily year after year with minimal maintenance by instructors. More information about the reading lists can be found here.
This session will show you how you can place physical course reserves requests or digitization requests with the library using Leganto. We will also talk about how you can add your own files and links to create comprehensive and student-friendly course materials lists.
Registration on the library's calendar page is required. Click here to receive the link for this virtual workshop!
Evidence synthesis refers to any method of identifying, selecting and combining results from multiple studies. Their aim is to identify and synthesize all of the scholarly research on a particular topic, including both published and unpublished studies.
Do you crave an extremely quiet place to hop on an online meeting, practice a presentation or just shut out the world and study? To help you, the University Library has installed a shushbooth on the first floor of Library West by the Commons Area Seating!
Thanks to its noise-cancelling materials, the shushbooth reduces noise by approximately 20dB. It is equipped with one desk, a chair, a table, power outlets, a light and ventilation fans.
Only one person may use the shushbooth at a time. It can be reserved just like the other study rooms in the library. You can book the booth for two hours, up to a week in advance. Click here to make your reservation today!
