Libguides Integration: Home

Libguides, or research guides, is a content management tool used by the library to publish content or course specific guides.  These guides are useful for students looking for resources for an assignment, course or subject.

These guides can now be embedded in Canvas.  There is an extensive list of guides for subjects, courses and other resources.  You can also contact one of our subject liaisons if you have any questions.
