Library Guides

The library can custom build a library guide for a course, department, or program.  These can be placed in a Canvas page with a dynamic link to the library guide page.

Contact Rachel Riter, Librarian Instructional Design in the library if your course lends itself to having a library guide and she will be happy to meet with you and your faculty to discuss customizations.

• This is an example of a page for the CJ 4880 Library Guide.

• This is how you code the html with the link the library will send to you once the page is created:

<div id=”kl_custom_css”>&nbsp;</div>

<div id=”kl_wrapper_3″ class=”kl_basic_bar kl_wrapper”>

<div id=”kl_banner”>

<h2 class=”rule” style=”background-color: #000000; color: #ffffff;”><span> <span class=”kl_mod_text”><strong>&nbsp;<i class=”fas fa-book” aria-hidden=”true”> </i> Read</strong></span> <br /></span></h2>

</div>

</div>
