Library Course Reserves: Brightspace

Brightspace is a campus-wide e-learning platform and online course management system provided to students and faculty for instructional purposes. All Brightspace classes and content are created, monitored, and managed by the instructor and not by the USC Libraries. 

To add/link your Library Course Reserves (aka ARES) course from Brightspace, please consult this helpful guide

Please note: we recommend that instructors connect Library Course Reserves to their Brightspace course using the instructions in the guide above first.  You can then create the course, add/request content, set course proxy users, etc., all within your Brightspace session.  This will ensure that all content and resources are available and accessible to your students.

If you need assistance with Brightspace, please contact USC ITS Support at brightspace@usc.edu or call ITS at (213) 740-5555 (Students dial 1; Instructors dial 2)
