"Meet students where they're at" seems like a simple enough library strategic goal. However, integrating into students' online spaces like learning management systems can be tricky given the advocacy, inter-unit collaboration, and project management skills needed to succeed.
Whether you're actively putting together a learning management system integration proposal or hoping to refine your communication strategies for collaborations with campus partners, DOLS' latest event has you covered.
Join us as Northern Kentucky University's Hailley Fargo and Ryan A. Spellman recount their journey successfully bringing LibGuides into Canvas this past spring. Their talk will cover lessons learned from preparing to implement the integration, experiences post-implementation, and advice for librarians hoping to do something similar at their institutions.
