❏ Check links in Canvas

❏ Are they active?
❏ Do they lead to the correct resource?

❏ If links don’t work as expected, contact your instructional designer or librarian for help.


❏ Schedule library instruction

❏ Do you have a research assignment in your course?
❏ Are your students required to utilize library resources for any purpose?
❏ Schedule your library instruction well in advance to ensure the best experience for your students, whether your class is synchronous or asynchronous, online or in-person.


❏ Integrate library materials

❏ Are any of your course materials available through the library?
❏ Are you looking for a specific ebook but can't find it in the library's collection?
❏ Are any of your course materials available as open access (OA) materials?
❏ Could library or OA resources substitute for your current course materials?
