Summary

How do I setup and use the Barnes and Noble integration in D2L Brightspace?

Body

Overview

Barnes & Noble College allows for an instructor to add a link to the Barnes and Noble textbook from their D2L Brightspace course Content. 

The Barnes & Noble College First Day integration relies on a school-wide External Learning Tool link.  This integration allows the student to have access to a textbook on the first day of class.  This model makes use of a course/program fee to provide course material access.  The instructor may need to work with the campus bookstore to use this method.
