New Form!! Please submit your resource lists using the Resource/Book List Submission Form at least 45-90 days prior to the course start date of the implementation session. Any requests submitted closer to the start date will require leadership approval. Be sure to include the title, author (when available), and URL/citation information in a Word doc and upload the listing. If URLs are not provided, the document will be returned.
After the resources are reviewed for copyright and 508 compliance, an eReserve is created for approved links. The resources are broken out by week and the unique link to that eReserve can be added to your D2L/Brightspace course.
Items that are not Open Educational Resources (OER) and/or located in the Trefry Library need special consideration and will need to be approved by the School Dean and Provost.
This timeframe can be reduced if a required resource disappears off the Web or from our Library holdings without notice. Please email ECM@apus.edu if you encounter any broken links or missing resources. Broken links can also be reported here.
