Library Tools
Information for Faculty
Library Tools web pages are sets of library recommendations built around courses and curricula. There's a Library Tools page for every course at NC State!
The anatomy of a Library Tools page (mouse-over different sections to see details):
Library Tools pages include:
- E-Reserves for your course
- Article databases
- Librarian Recommendations
- IM a Librarian for help
- Citation Tools, including the Citation Builder
- and more...
Library tools pages can be customized. If you'd like to tailor a Library Tools page to a specific assignment or other course needs, contact Kim Duckett, Librarian for Digital Technologies and Learning.
Library Tools in Your Course
You can incorporate Library Tools into your online course environment in several ways:
Library Tools in BlackBoard Vista - just check the box to include library resource and/or e-reserves for your course when signing up for a Vista section. This is what it looks like.
Library Tools in Moodle - a Library Tools "block" is available for Moodle course sites.
Course Websites - you can insert a link to the Library Tools page for your course right into your course website.
