•   https://online.suny.edu/onlineteaching/librarians/
•   Which include these resources that were developed for our site at that time:
•   Clear articulation of support provided by librarians to faculty members.   https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-gbpDzCDom9N_c28yxyoGDLICU_3zJ9PHDaXCdObpnk/edit
•   A list of resources and tools utilized by librarians for provision of online teaching support. https://docs.google.com/document/d/184BRJLGOmdfm8hlgDv-_M61fdAn801a3HI6Xz7Zyd54/edit
•   A guidebook to bring a librarian new to this role [course supports] up to speed on which services to provide. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gbfvpsQfvq-DQtl9lZD73WTP3PqzqalCNwfcUlBVmpw/edit
