In this column, I give a brief overview of five ways that libraries can be incorporated into a learning management system (LMS), ordered from easiest to most difficult to scale, or in other words, least to most personal:

- Create a collection of graded modules for faculty use
- Create an online library mini-course

The panelists’ projects provide helpful examples of CUNY librarians’ work to increase access for our communities through technology.
