A project to incorporate QR codes into the program of the Fine Arts Library at Indiana University-Bloomington (IUB), launched during the summer of 2011, had two goals designed to increase access to course-related research materials: to embed traceable QR codes in course syllabi leading to custom course resource web pages developed and hosted by the library, and to place QR codes on the library’s website and in prominent locations throughout the facility. The author concludes that web pages tailored to courses are a useful way to introduce research materials to tech-savvy students in the classroom, and that implementation of a QR code and accompanying URL on a course syllabus is an effective tool for the library and faculty in their work with students.
