Library presence in Blackboard/LMS

[Schuster, David]

Texas Woman's University has had a long tradition of online education.  The libraries has maintained a "tab" at the top for a long time, and with the last upgrade in Blackboard we had to redo the site.

I'm still a little confused as to how it is maintained as there was talk about a container and the managers of Blackboard actually have to update it for us.  Most of the links go back to libguides.

To those of you at academic libraries that have a presence in Blackboard (or your institution's LMS), what do you have there?  Bonus points if you can share a link that's publicly available.

Our college is going through a reorganization of our Blackboard site.  They will be offering us a library tab at the top. (woo hoo!)  Our options range from creating custom boxes with info that show up depending on who's logged in (student, faculty, etc.), creating some general links to our research guides and such, or just pointing the tab to the library website.
