Instructions for LIT

LIT is set up in Blackboard. Instructors who want to use LIT for a blackboard course should request a copy of the tutorial from web services at http://bbrequest.wwu.edu . Web services will create a new Blackboard course titled “Library Tutorial for yourclassname”. This is a separate Blackboard course from your class’s Blackboard course and students will see both courses listed when they log into MyWestern. All of the students registered in your course will automatically be added to the LIT Blackboard if you correctly specify the CRN when requesting the LIT course in http://bbrequest.wwu.edu
