As an instructor in a course (formally called “Teacher” in Canvas), you are able to add users with a number of different roles, one of them being “Librarian.” The librarian role was created for use by QU library staff who make contributions to course materials and engage with students in the course through groups and discussions.
What permissions does the role have? What permissions does the role not have?
