FACULTY RESOURCES

REQUESTING AN E-PACK

E-packs are publisher-created digital content that is ready to use in WebCT Vista. E-Packs provide a starting point for faculty to get up and running quickly with high-quality course content.

To search for e-packs:
Visit the Blackboard Partners Page
Select the link beside the Publisher's name
Follow the publisher's instructions for requesting digital content

The publisher will ask you for the name, phone number and email of the WebCT Vista administrator.

Contact information is:
Name: Bhavesh Shah or Theresa Miller
Phone: 617-287-3074
Email: umb.lms@umb.edu

Faculty must also request a course site by submitting a course section request form and provide the required details about the e-pack. The LMS Administrator will acquire the e-pack and apply it to the requested course site. An e-pack can only be applied to a course site as a first step and any previously existing content will be over written.

Faculty are responsible for obtaining the ISBN access codes from the publisher and are encouraged to work closely with textbook representatives to assure the text is available in the bookstores.
