Classroom Instruction on Research Resources
KSL librarians will come to your class or work with your class in KSL to show them that 'more is not better...better is better' when it comes to smart search skills and authorized, scholarly resources. We can get your SAGES students started on resources tailored to your class, or help any class with good research skills. Inquiries can also be sent to askalibrarian@case.edu, or you can contact a Research Services Librarian directly to contact a specialist for your class subject matter.
KSL Course Reserves for your class
Create your class online on KSL Course Reserves–enter book or DVD titles and KSL staff does the rest. Your class is online and available 24x7 with a tool that's easy to use.. Class submissions turned in early are guaranteed to be up before the semester begins.

Copyright@Case and Author's Rights
Get the basics on your copyrights and make informed decisions on what you're using in class, posting to online resources, or using on the web. Check resources for public domain charts & tools to check for current or lapsed copyrights, on the Copyright@Case pages.
Author's Rights helps you determine what rights you might need in the future as you go to publication–and how to rethink the contract to a nonexclusive shared scenario when you're talking with a publisher. Publisher policies and Open Access news links are also available.
