Join the UMBC Bookstore for a virtual mixology lesson and learn how to navigate VitalSource's Bookshelf to use your CMI etext to enhance your students' distanced learning experience!

Mix up a Pub[lisher] Crawl favorite, "The C.M.I.: The Citrus Mojito Impostor" with Bookstore Director Erin McGonigle. While you sip your beverage, she will also take you on a tour of the Bookshelf App and its features. Learn how to add outside sources, embed comments/questions into the text for students to access while they read, and assign weekly readings by inserting links to chapters or sections in your Blackboard course.
