We are happy to announce that lynda.com, the premiere online library of instructional videos teaching the latest software tools and skills, is now available at no cost to all UR faculty, staff and students taking courses for credit (full-time and part-time). Taught by accomplished instructors and recognized industry experts, lynda.com is a high-quality resource that offers 24/7 learning, thousands of courses, exercise files to use while learning, full text transcriptions, certificates of completion, and all of it is mobile-friendly.
Visit http://lynda.richmond.edu to log in. When you log in for the first time, you will be asked if you already have an account. If you do, you can choose to merge the two (and stop paying if you currently have an active individual account). Un-merging is possible when a student graduates or an employee leaves. Note that everyone gets the equivalent of a “Lynda Pro” account, which includes practice files.
If you have any questions, reach out to your CTLT liaison, e-mail the CTLT assistant director, Mike Dixon or CTLT director Kevin Creamer. And thanks to Boatwright Memorial Library which helped fund this service for the University community!
