Course Resources is a tool to create and organize lists of course materials and share them with students. It allows instructors to easily find resources, create lists, share these lists with students, and communicate with library staff. Once you send your list to the library, we will review it and gather items we do not already have in our collection. As items are reviewed and processed, they will be visible to your students in Canvas.
From Canvas, choose your course
then, click the Course Resources tab on the left navigation bar
Note: the Library resources and course reserves tab will be removed at the end of Summer '22 courses.
or access Course Resources directly at https://bc.edu/courseresources
If you had a library resource list from the past, it should appear in Course Resources under the LIST menu. Lists are rolled over from year to year. If the course, section, and term remain the same, then you should see your old list. If you do not, you can associate an old list with your current course. Use the top menu and choose: Manage course association.
In order for your list to be processed by the library, the list must be sent to the library. Click SEND TO LIBRARY, after which the link will read LIST SENT. In order for the list to be visible to students in Canvas, we will change the status from DRAFT to PUBLISHED.
For the Fall 2022 semester, please note:
To send us your Fall resource list:
6. Add a Title, for example ECON1011 RESOURCE LIST and a Type, choose Other
7. Click ADD & CLOSE
8. Click SEND TO LIBRARY
Your list will be prepared by the library and you will be notified when the list is available.
Collaborators can help manage or edit your list. If you would like to add a TA, Designer, or Librarian to your list, select the arrow to expand the Collaborators tab. Enter a name or full BC email address (firstname.lastname@bc.edu). If you do not find a name, you can add the person to your Canvas course as a TA or Designer. Once in Canvas, the person can go to Course Resources and they will appear on the list of collaborators to invite.
To change a person's role from a Collaborator (Can edit list) to an Owner (Can manage list), select Manage collaborators.
Select the button for the collaborator whose permissions you wish to change and select Allow collaborator to manage list to make that person a list Owner. Select the remove name from list button ("x" icon) to delete a Collaborator.
