The Library

The Library is for academic material that is useful beyond a single course. Within it, faculty and admins also get My Files, a private area.

Select Library in the top navigation. The Library and My Files tabs switch between the two.

Upload to the shared Library

1. On the Library tab, select Upload Files.
2. Choose Upload File to upload from your computer, or Paste Link to add a URL with a display name.
3. Set the Visibility:
   • Everyone
   • Students only
   • Faculty only
   • Specific groups: pick the groups that should see it.
4. Upload.

Use New Folder to keep the Library organized.

My Files and reusing a file across courses

Anything you upload to My Files is private to you. This is the place to keep a file you plan to share with more than one course.

To put a My Files item into a course:

1. Open the course and select Add resource.
2. Choose My Files and pick the file.
3. Set the folder and audience, then confirm.

The course now references that file. The original stays in My Files, and removing it from one course does not affect the file or any other course. You upload it once and reference it wherever you need it.
