Libraries and distance ed

I saw a link to this Educause article on Embedded Librarians on the ATLANTIS listserve. The article reports on the Community College of Vermont's program to place librarians in online classes to provide class specific library instruction.

The article lists several different forms that this has taken in CCV classes. Perhaps this isn't a terribly new idea but as a former distant student, I think that this could be a real service to other distant students.
