How do I import the Resources for Your LMS to Blackboard?

RLMS files are integrated course content packages to easily add high-quality Norton digital resources to your online, hybrid, or lecture courses. Norton provides these packages for Blackboard Learn. 

To access book specific resources, first locate your book by discipline and title from here.

For this course to function properly, you will need to ensure that LTI integration is enabled and supported on your school's learning management system. If you are unsure, you can contact your local Blackboard administrator and ask if Norton is an LTI tool provider at your school. If Norton is not yet an approved tool provider, please contact your local Norton representative for assistance. Find your representative here.

Resources for your LMS (RLMS) is a Blackboard course content package export file.  To add these resources to your Blackboard course, you will import the package to a blank shell
