To download the modules for use in your course, go to Canvas, choose Commons on the left hand menu, and then choose "shared" at the top of the screen. For screen shots on this process see this page. Contact Academic Technology if you need help importing it into your course.

You can add a link to our Citing and Documenting Sources Guide to your Canvas course by using the following URL:
