What is Learning Tools Interoperability?
• Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) is a single standard by which
EdTech providers can seamlessly link items of content with the
major Learning Management Systems. The LTI “standard” is set by
IMS Global—a non-profit collaborative advancing EdTech
interoperability, innovation, and learning impact.
• LTI allows access to latest technology standards for deep linking
technology.
What are the benefits of using LTI?
• Seamless Authentication
• One place for course information
• Deep linking into ProQuest databases
How to set up ProQuest as an External Tool within Canvas using LTI 1.3 Deep Linking Technology -ProQuest Support Center
What does this mean for faculty & students?
• Easy way to “hand” students assigned articles, passages, videos
• Integrate the materials directly into course modules or assignments
• No need to fetch, download, and upload materials from another place
• Students click on the links and they open in Canvas or Moodle
without additional authentication
• Students can access this anywhere they can access Canvas or Moodle
New “Use Tools” Menu (January)• On results pages and document pages, we provide options that allow users to download and save
documents in a variety of formats and to a number of different services

Publication Page Optimization
• Latest issue contents are now shown
directly on the publication page, with
an enhanced issue picker.
• Including Video and Video Series
13
• This replaces the previous
'Browse specific issues',
removing the multiple
clicks required before
user could view any
content from the
publication.
• A 'Copy URL' button is also provided to take away doubt about whether these page URLs are durable and can be bookmarked
What is Improved Access to the ProQuest Platform?
New functionality extends the points of entry to the ProQuest Platform beyond library discovery and learning management systems to access from the wider web.
ProQuest.com is the home of the Search Platform
With its easy-to-remember URL, librarians can tell their students and faculty to simply "Go to ProQuest” or “go to ProQuest.com” to access the library's ProQuest content
Information about ProQuest and our products is available via the top left menu
