Instructors can now help students connect to research and information resources by adding the Library Guides tool to myCourses. This dynamic tool can be inserted into myCourses in two ways, either directly in the course module and accessible via the left-side menu, or in the course’s top-level menu. Each course can be connected to pre-assigned subject guides that will populate automatically, or to one or more niche guides curated by the relevant subject librarian.

The issue has been resolved. It is no longer necessary to be on VPN to access the Teaching and Learning KB.

Due to a system problem, the Teaching and Learning KB is only accessible once you are connected to the McGill Network. If you are off campus, you will need to connect to the VPN. We will update you when the problem is fixed.
