Reaching Millennial Minds:
A Case Study of Integrating Library Services into Course Management Systems
Millennial students retrieve information from five primary sources:
- Social networks
- Mobile devices
- Peers
- Course Management System (CMS)
This presentation will explore how each of the primary information sources presents a unique set of benefits and limitations when creating a library presence and will focus on the CMS as the best tool for libraries to reach millennial students.
The presenters will offer a library CMS integration approaches for librarians and educators that will focus on how educators can establish a library presence in the CMS. We will also demonstrate strategies, activities, and tools to integrate the entire library into the CMS. This presentation will explore how the CMS can be used by libraries and library tools can be integrated into the CMS. The presenters are currently developing a CMS/library integration application for Oklahoma State University that will be demonstrated.
