Design your courses using library provided resources. Jackson Library offers eBooks, streaming video, and a wide range of databases for peer reviewed articles that you can link to within your courses.
Once you locate a book you would like to use just grab the permalink to add into Blackboard so your students can easily find the eBook.
Course reserve materials are books, articles, videos, etc., which are set aside by instructors to support class instruction. Reserve materials are kept behind the service desk and may be requested through a service desk worker.
Reserve items are generally listed as 3-hour library use only. This means that the material may not be taken out of the library. However, some items have longer borrowing periods. The borrowing period is set in place by the course instructor and will not be changed by library personnel unless permission is personally granted by the course instructor.

Ways students can use library databases for peer reviewed articles within courses:
Use our A-Z Database List and search by Subject to see what is available in your discipline.
Government Information is available in print and electronic formats through the library's federal and state depository collections. Access more information about the collection by using our Government Information page.
Have your students group The New York Times Digital Academic Pass and incorporate the news into your courses. Grab a pass here.
