American University Faculty:

If you are planning for Fall 2008, we encourage you to take advantage of the many library services that are available to support your teaching:

• Use the Library Blackboard site to learn how to integrate online journals, streaming media, and links to live chat with a reference librarian into your Blackboard courses.
• Use Blackboard's library LinkMaker to provide your students with direct access to articles from over 15,000 online journals.
• Submit course reserves requests for content not available via Linkmaker (Deadline for Fall course reserves: July 9th, 2008 to guarantee access by first day of class)
• Schedule videos through Media Services
• Arrange for a library instruction session
• Reserve an electronic classroom in the Anderson Computing Complex
