How can UVA Library Portal enhance teaching and learning?
- By providing quick access to the UVA Library catalog and library materials within a Canvas course.
- By allowing instructors and students to chat with Library staff to get answers to quick questions.
- By allowing instructors to order Library resources or book an appointment for a librarian to teach a session for their course.
- By allowing a school's or department's liaison librarian to curate and display specific materials in courses.
- By allowing students to schedule an appointment with their school's or department's research librarian to get assistance with using the Library website or materials for assignments.
- By allowing students to submit requests for materials. Students can request articles UVA doesn't own through Interlibrary Loan, eBooks, and scanned chapters from print books in the Library for delivery to their email inboxes. Distance education students can also ask to have print books owned by the UVA Library sent to their homes via the Library's distance education service.
