In addition to traditional in-person instruction, we offer the option of having a librarian assigned to assist with courses online:
- Ideal for Asynchronous Online Courses: This option works well for online courses that do not include in-person sessions.
- Flexible for Seated or Hybrid Classes: It can be used in seated or hybrid classes, either as an addition to or instead of in-person instruction.
Benefits of Having a Personal Course Librarian:
- Enhanced Access: The librarian is embedded in the Blackboard course, allowing them to view the materials students are working with.
- Permissions and Resources: Librarians typically have permissions to add resources, links, and learning objects.
- Discussion Boards: They can create discussion boards and be directly contacted through the Blackboard course.
- Student Access: Students gain access to library resources and personal contact with a librarian within the Blackboard environment.
- Professor Control: Librarians do not have access to grades, and professors retain full control over instructional content and assignments outside the librarian’s area.
