Blackboard offers two different methods for adding library reserves lists or research guides to your course content:
- "LibApps (Automagic)," based on the Blackboard course ID, the libraries create this link for you
- "LibApps (Single Course)," manually choose the items you would like to add from a list.
Automagic - Blackboard Ultra
For automagic linking to work, you must contact our course reserves service to add your Blackboard course ID to our reserves lists.
- Once the course ID has been added on the library side, look under Content, Press the Plus icon and choose "Content Market"
- Click the (+) icon for LibApps (Automagic)
- The tool will be added.
- Edit it for title, such as "Library Guides" and make it visible to students.
- That's it! When students access the course Content area, they should see any associated guides or course reserves for that class.
If there is only a single guide or reserves list, it will open in the content frame.
- If multiple items have been added to the course, you will see a list of options.
Content not showing? Contact us to make sure we have your current semester Blackboard ID in our system metadata.
Single Course - Blackboard Ultra
- Under Content, Press the Plus icon and choose "Content Market"
- Click the (+) icon for LibApps (Single Course)
- The App has been added and now you need to add content to it. Click the name of the content item.
- You will be asked what content item you would like to add. This can be
- a LibGuide (Research Guide) or single page from a guide
- a list of library databases from our A-Z list
- a course reserves list
- After you have made your selection, click Embed content.
- Now you can edit the app for title, such as "Library Guides" and make it visible to students.
- That's it! When students access the course Content area, they should see any associated guides or course reserves for that class.
If there is only a single guide or reserves list, it will open in the content frame.
- If multiple items have been added to the course, you will see a list of options.
