| You can place a link to your e-reserves in your BlackBoard
course. Students both on and off campus will be able to access these readings
without having to enter their library barcode/18-digit number. Here is
how you you can place links into BlackBoard.
- Locate your e-reserve in PILOT. (If you need help using
the e-reserve system, please see the Guide
to Accessing E-reserves.) You want to be at the screen where
there is a link that says "Click here for article."
-
Right-click on the the link and select "Copy Shortcut".
- Log into your BlackBoard course as an instructor.
- In the Control Panel, in an area where you want the link, select the
option to add an external link.
- Enter the name you want displayed, and paste the information you copied
in step 2 into the URL textbox. The URL will look something like this:
http://ereserves.mansfield.edu/ereserve.php?filename=burns_ed5531_05.pdf
- Submit your changes.
Now, your e-reserve will be linked in your course.
If you need assistance with linking library resources to BlackBoard,
please contact your department's librarian
or Sheila Kasperek. If you need
assistance with BlackBoard in general, please contact Tamela Bastion at
