Copyright / ERES Session from Access Services

Caitlin Noussias and Melanie Smith-Farrell presented a session on using copyrighted material in courses in general and including ERES in Springboard in particular as part of a summer series on online courses from Instructional Services on campus. From all reports, the session was very well received. I have attached the powerpoint below so that you can see what our colleagues presented. This is the first time we have promoted ERES in Springboard, so we may also get more questions about this service.

My thanks to Caitlin and Melanie for representing us well!
