Why use a Library Course Page?

Saves Time & Money

  • No need to scan or link to readings - we do it for you
  • Helps students find course reserves and relevant library resources fast
  • No cost passed on to students or instructors

Supports Information Literacy Goals

  • Allows students to concentrate on learning to use library research tools and services tailored to the needs of a class research assignment.
  • May be used with or without a library instruction session. The customized content and librarian contact information is even more important when no session is planned.

Easy To Use

  • Automatically linked with other campus systems (MyUW, Learn@UW)
  • Consistent presentation to students - all LCPs use the same page layout giving a consistent look and feel
  • Reading list can be arranged in an order that works best for the class - by week, by topic, etc.

Secure Access and Support

  • Provides secure access to copyright-protected course reserves for enrolled students
  • Library staff are available for help with any questions
