Course Materials+: Create a list & add collaborators
Create a list in Course Materials+
Select Course Materials+ and click "Create new list."
Please use the course title as the list name to help library staff locate your list.
Choose 'Default' to start with one section. You can add more if needed.
Choose 'Weeks' to start with an 8-week outline. You can change the number and relabel sections. (E.g., 'Week 1...Week 2...' or 'Required'...'Optional'...'Extra Credit').
Add with Library Search (will search the Libraries' catalog, Infohawk+)
Add from InfoHawk+ (add from the Libraries catalog, outside of ICON - you must sign in to InfoHawk+)
Add with Cite It! (add items from the web)
Upload Files (ensure they meet Accessibility requirements)
Place books on the course reserves shelf (Add tag is required to identify the loan period)
Submit an Electronic Purchase Request (directly from Course Materials+)
Request or Renew Streaming Media (for films that are or will expire before the end of semester)
Request Digitization (digitizing is for reading material)
Add Loan Period Tags to physical items for the Course Reserves shelf.
Add Electronic Purchase request for items currently unavailable.
You have to scroll or begin typing for the tagging options.
When ready, send your list to the Libraries. Once received, Libraries' staff begin processing requests.
NOTE: Students can not see lists until they are published!
Please contact Libraries' staff through the Course Materials+ Library Discussion feature or at lib-res@uiowa.edu if you have any problems with these steps.
How to add collaborators
Collaborators can do everything a list owner can do, except add other collaborators and delete the list. Potential collaborators could be:
- Co-instructors
- TAs
- Instructional Designers
- Liaison Librarians and Library Staff
Please note: List collaborators need to be added to the list in Course Materials+ even if they already have an instructor/TA/designer role on ICON.
To add, view, and delete collaborators, click the 'List info' link and choose 'Manage collaborators'.
