Please see Get Started with Course Resources and Get Lists Ready for Teaching if you have not done so before.
Add all resources that students need to access during your course:
It is okay if resources are not added perfectly using the Talis browser extension:
See the steps below to add different resource types
Course Resources lists must include all:
Resources that are copyrighted / published:
It is an infringement to upload PDFs of copyrighted works to Canvas files for students to download
Contact the Copyright Advisor via ServiceNow if you are unsure of an item's copyright status
Course Resources lists should include any:
Resources not subject to Copyright
Resources that are Out of Copyright
Include these on your list so students can find all resources in the same place in Canvas, and so Librarians can ensure access to them.
Course Resources lists needn't include any:
Course Materials created or written by staff members - these are owned by AUT
Items copied specifically for examinations - these are exempt from copying limits
These can be uploaded directly to your Canvas pages/files
Librarians add a direct link to the Chapter/Page named in the 'Note for Students' for you the next business day.
Librarians update the citation details → chapters in edited books are formatted differently to chapters in authored books.
Librarians purchase any books added that AUT does not own, and/or any new editions that are available.
Librarians add stable links to the article PDF for you. Please note, some databases do not allow the PDF view to be directly linked to.
Please see Add from Legal Databases below for guidance on adding Law and Tax resources.
