Give students electronic access to course readings and cases
BIC Connects offers the following services:
- Create durable electronic links to assigned readings
- Insert durable links into syllabi and course pages in Quercus
- The links will connect to full-text journal articles available electronically through U of T and provide students access to course material both on and off campus.
To have links added to your courses, please email your request along with your syllabus to BICConnects@rotman.utoronto.ca
Please allow 4 business days for us to complete the request.
To submit your syllabus
Email your syllabus with full citations* (including pages numbers, if applicable) to BICConnects@rotman.utoronto.ca as a Microsoft Word document, PDF, or rich text file. We also need:
• The course name and course code
• Your name and contact information
• The number of students in your course
• Which print items on your syllabus you’ve already scanned and which still need to be scanned
• If you have used this service for the course in a previous semester
Please let us know if you want any books put on reserve. We only have course reserves for graduate programs at Rotman; Commerce reserve requests can be sent to Robarts via syllabus.service@library.utoronto.ca.
*Due to the high volume of incomplete requests, we no longer accept requests without full citations.
