Research Guides are an easy way to share library and research information.
These guides usually contain listings of recommended resources for finding information such as books, ebooks, databases, or relevant websites and guidance on how to use these resources to find relevant information.
Research Guides can be created for a specific subject area, subtopic area, a specific class, or even a specific class assignment. And these guides can be embedded in Canvas!
Take a look at the guides we've created below.
Virtual collections are another excellent way to engage your students with library materials related to the subjects they are studying. We can create collections for broad topics, classes, or even assignments. You can find examples of the virtual collections we have created here.
What makes virtual collections better than telling students search terms? They allow students to visually scan titles to see which appeal to them. And while we say don't judge a book by its cover, many people prefer this method of browsing.
