Adding relevant E-Reserves at the guide-level allows students to find everything they need in one place - expert guidance from you and key reserve materials for their class. It's a win-win.
You Can:
Showcasing relevant E-Reserve materials during a library instruction session is a great way to ensure usage and strengthen the library/user relationship. Plus, the perceived value of the library is higher; students' success in this class is directly correlated to their navigation of library-managed readings.
Embed relevant course-specific content right inside a Blackboard, Moodle, Sakai, Canvas, or any LTI-compliant learning management system. Natively.
With LibGuides content right in their courses, faculty don't have to hunt around to find their E-Reserves. Faculty can even connect readings to an assignment and their online gradebook per curriculum standards. Plus, the library retains all usage statistics.
Bypass E-Reserve Passwords: Authenticated students already inside their courseware tool accessing password-protected E-Reserves via the LTI shouldn't have to enter in another password.
And with our LTI, they won't have to!
