Embedding Librarians in Canvas ...
If your course is confirmed by the program and liaison as one for an embedded librarian, creating a visible space in Canvas for library instruction and resources is important. Your liaison can work on this with you, if you first add them to your course Canvas site as a librarian. To do that,
- Click on People in the left-hand vertical menu in your course site,
- Look to the upper right on the roster page and click on + People,
- Add your liaison by typing their email address in the required email addresses box, and
- Select Librarian (instead of Student) in the drop-down menu for Role.
Once your liaison is added as a Librarian in your course, they can add relevant resources to your course. For example, the embedded liaison might share their contact info for consultations, host a research discussion board, link to helpful research guides, embed instructional videos, or post a research assignment. The form of embedding is entirely up to the course instructor and the liaison.
