Step 5. 

From the dropdown menu, select External Tool. Next, find and click on the Follett-Willo Digital Delivery 1.3 link. If you do not see this option, your campus LMS Administrator may have named it something different such as Willo, Follett-Willo, or something similar. Find one that is similar to one of the options. Then, click Add Item. If you are unable to find the link, you can click on the three dots to the right of +Module and select the Follett-Willo Digital Delivery 1.3 tool. You may be able to find the link listed here.

Adding the Follett Willo Digital Delivery 1.3 Link Manually:

Part Three: Adding Yellowdig Product/Publisher Links to Your Course

Step 10.

You’re now ready to add links to your course. We recommend that you add course support links to provide your students with easy access to materials and support. Check the course support links you’d like to include and select Push Links.

Note: The Course Support link is available for students and faculty. Faculty should encourage students to use this link to open a ticket with our helpdesk if they have any issues accessing the course materials. 

Note: The Instructor Self-Service link should be hidden from students, as it is for instructor use only and directs you to the Course Management page.

 

Step 11.

You’ll receive a success message. Select Close Window and return to the LMS to verify the course support links you selected are now available in your course.

Step 12.

The Yellowdig link has now been added into your Module. Now, click on one of the product links added to initialize your course materials and complete the pairing process.

 

 

Step 13.

If presented with the following screen after clicking on the publisher links, select the academic term from the dropdown menu and click Submit.

 

 

Step 14.

The next screen will launch Yellowdig. Log in with your Yellowdig credentials or create a new account.

Step 15. 

Next you will be asked to create a New Community for your course if you have not already done so. 

 

Your Yellowdig course materials are now paired with your Canvas course!
