The importance of library resources and services to academic success is demonstrable. While current Learning Management Systems (LMS) do not support their integration, the signs are positive that this will change. A wide variety of LMSs are used at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Canada, compounding the problem. SFU Library has achieved considerable success in technology, having developed reSearcher for Western Canadian university libraries; maintaining active digitization, institutional repository and e-journal support programmes; and supporting a very strong e-collection. SFU Library has a very active on-campus course-based instruction programme; extending that programme to the LMS environment has been challenging and, at times, frustrating.
Through technology, strategic activity and active involvement in online pedagogical initiatives, some success has been achieved.
