One is the Loneliest Number: Use of the Campus LMS and Other Tools to Support Small- or Single-librarian Instruction Teams
Description
In an age when many librarians are being asked to do more with fewer resources, small reference teams can quickly be faced with more opportunities for instruction than they can adequately service. This presentation will explore the integration of the library into the campus LMS (Canvas) in order to support traditional in-person instruction to better meet the needs of the campus community while extending services to online and distance learners. The presenter will discuss the design process and how specific tools such as Camtasia and Chrome extensions were used to create content. The presenter will also discuss incorporation of universal design elements, along with strategies used to overcome technical challenges. The timeline for the course's creation will also be discussed in detail, along with assessment and anticipated course maintenance and revision.
