Documents (book chapters, articles e.t.c.) obtained through DDS cannot be placed in Canvas as they are obtained for the specific purpose of personal research and study and not for making multiple copies of readings for students and staff.  

Staff who request DDS materials are required to make a declaration that the DDS copy is made "for the purpose of research or study and [that it will not be used] for any other purpose." (Copyright Act)
