AU LIBRARY VS. BLACKBOARD
Until the summer of 2014, the AU made use of several different LMS
systems, including Blackboard. The library was part of the team that
helped test and implement Blackboard at AU and we, therefore, have
a long-standing involvement in LMS system development at the AU.
It was decided that the AU should have a single, common LMS and
following a tendering process, Blackboard was chosen as supplier of
the system.
In order to meet deadlines, ensure further development, etc. the work
involved in the implementation of Blackboard was organized as
follows:

ORGANIZATION OF THE IMPLEMENTATION
A general steering committee consisting of vice-deans, deputy directors and
program managers.
Project leader forum, consisting of project leaders from the 4 faculties, the program
leader and a representative from AU Library
4 local implementation groups – 1 per. faculty. Each group consists of a program
leader, a project leader, a director of studies from the different faculties and a
representative from AU Library
AU Library has been able to get members into the project leader forum and in the
individual implementation units. This has given us a unique opportunity to draw
attention to what we as a library can offer this project, and an opportunity to be
part of it from the very start. It has required resources to be represented in these
forums and participate in meetings that could often be irrelevant to the library, but
in the end our continuing presence has paid off, as the AU Library is now in the
thoughts of most directors of studies, vice-deans and project leaders.

AU LIBRARY IN BLACKBOARD
When Blackboard was launched at AU, the AU Library was already
part of the students' Blackboard solution.
The examples here are from the Faculty of ARTS - students from other
faculties have a customized AU Library page where the list of
databases is tailored to their students.
Our work going forward will be to be more present in the individual
courses in Blackboard

OUR AIM – EMBEDDED LIBRARY
Whenever you enter a university, the library is there
somewhere amongst the university buildings.
We aim to secure the same experience, when you
enter the digital ”buildings”, the LMS.

“LMS embedded librarianship … delivers
relevant library resources and services needed
by students grappling with course-specific
research assignments in the campus LMS.” (Tumbleson, Beth E., and Burke, John J. 2015, p.6.)

OUR AIM – EMBEDDED LIBRARIAN
The library resources should be accessible right when and where
you need them.
The librarian’s skills should be clear and visible, so that you know
when to address them for help rather than your tutor, peers, IT
department, Google, etc.
#BbLibrary
AARHUSUNIVERSITETAU
“Library literature suggests that students have a
limited understanding of what librarians can do
for them”
“The idea of a librarian as an academic expert
who is available to talk about assignments and
hold their hands through the research process is,
in fact, foreign to most students”(Tumbleson, Beth E., and Burke, John J. 2015, p.13.)

OUR AIM – EMBEDDED IN THE COURSES
Our modules can be integrated within the courses
We build modules on request
We are working on converting our products from modules into
content in the content collection areas, because our teachers
simply don’t use module pages on their courses.

HOW - TECHNICALITIES
We have chosen the role of ”Instructor”, whenever we enrole in a
course.
Librarians are administrators, in order to be able to quick enroll
courses and in order to create modules.
This has been debated with the pedagogical centres, and it’s the
most seem less way of working. There has been no insidents to
considering doing it with less authority.
