UA's Access Granted program, managed through the University Supply Store (Supe Store), is changing its primary vendor from RedShelf to VitalSource. In order to facilitate this quick change, the SUPe Supe Store will be assisting with necessary changes to the Access Granted course materials links in Blackboard Learn courses. In some cases, links to VitalSource in Blackboard Learn courses may now be labeled Access Granted.
With permission from the The Office of Academic Affairs, a SupeStore Supe Store support user will be added to all Fall and Spring courses in Blackboard Learn. CIT will add this support user as a Course Builder. This means the user will have access to edit existing RedShelf and VitalSource links so they reflect the correct information. This user will not have access to student submissions or grades.
...
Courses that do not have the tool link, and do not access it through the Tool Panel, can add the Access Granted tool and the link will be named Access Granted.
If instructors access the VitalSource tool through a link they’ve created in their course, the name of the link will remain unchanged in old courses and copied courses and will show as VitalSource Course Materials. The SupeStore Supe Store support account, or the instructor, needs to edit the name of the link from “Vital Source Course Materials” to “Access Granted”.
