 Hi, my name is John, I'm a librarian at the University of Alabama and this is a quick walkthrough for faculty and staff on how to request electronic course reserves and add a library specialist to your Blackboard Learn course shell to help you with the upload process. First, make a reserve request with the appropriate library by emailing a copy of the reserves request form and your syllabus to the appropriate library staff. You can find this info and the form at the course reserves faculty instructions page on the library's website and I've provided a link in the description to this page. This form includes the instructions you need to follow to fill it out. The header field will be how the files will be titled in your Blackboard shell. After you submit the form and your syllabus, a library specialist will be in contact with you over email and you'll then need to add them to your course as a course builder so they can upload the reserve readings. To do this, start at the course home page, make sure that the edit mode is toggled to on, scroll down the left hand column and if the column is hidden just click to pop it out and then we'll get a list of your users. Click find users to enroll and for my example I'll use a name from the instructions page. So copy the username and then you want to paste that in and change the role to course builder and click submit. You should now see the person that you've added in your users list listed as a course builder. The staff member will add your readings and remove themselves from the course once they are finished. And that's basically it, so thanks for watching and if you prefer to upload your readings yourself, see the link in the video description for a walkthrough of that process. Contact us if you have any questions, stay safe out there and roll tide.
