Background

Our Environment Large institution (30,000+ students) Many courses (6000+ courses) Mixed LMS Environment Blackboard Vista Moodle WolfWare (legacy filesystem solution)

Library Course Pages Hand-authored course guides Assignment focused Do not represent the range of stuff the library has to offer

Library Course Pages Hand-authored course guides Assignment focused Do not represent the range of stuff the library has to offer

Problem: Limited Reach

Introducing “Course Views”

What is Course Views? A distillation of the most student-centric stuff the library has to offer.

Course Views Web application branded Library Tools Homegrown, written in PHP Product launched August 2008

Goals

1.A Course View for every course

Goals 1.A Course View for every course 2.A scalable and sustainable system for library course content delivery

Course Identifiers NCSU example: ENG 101 ‘ENG’ = curriculum code ‘101’ = course number ‘ENG 101’ = full course identifier

Value of Standard Identifiers The use of standardized course identifiers (Ex: ENG 101) enabled simplified integration with a variety of external applications. Helps with collaboration.

A Course View for Every Course No dependency on staff to create pages Course Views can generate a course page for any known curricula Librarians may further refine the content that appears for a particular course

Collaboration is Key Subject specialist librarians (!) Campus partners Students Faculty

Disciplinary Differences So far we have observed much more usage in humanities and social science disciplines, and less from science and engineering.

Focus Group Feedback Make it simpler, but with more information.
