Loading eBooks into Canvas
Faculty can load eBooks into Canvas by copying the url at the top of the screen and pre-pending the proxy prefix.
Example:
Proxy Prefix - https://acproxy.ac.edu/login?url=
url for Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 20e (found at top of screen) - https://accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/books.aspx?view=library
Working url for use in Canvas - https://acproxy.ac.edu/login?url=https://accessmedicine.mhmedical.com/book.aspx?bookID=2129
FYI - The proxy prefix is required for off campus use.
The platform provides assistance with citations and url generation, but only on the chapter level.
Drill down to an individual chapter, in this case, Chapter 1.Then copy the new url. Add the proxy prefix and post to Canvas.
NOTE:
However, the only Citation styles supported are AMA and MLA.
The example above shows you how to cite Chapter 1. If you wanted to cite the entire book, you would need to eliminate the chapter- The Practice of Medicine - from the citation.
