Abstract: We describe how collections of documents built with Greenstone, an open source digital library system that is widely used internationally, can be integrated into courses offered within Moodle, a leading open source course management system. The scheme provides students with convenient searching and browsing facilities that are accessed directly from the Moodle interface. Library collections are stored on a separate server with which the course management server communicates; institutions can decide whether to run their own digital library server or use an external one. Collections are built with the standard Greenstone Librarian Interface, or with a simpler interface intended for teachers, and can be made available institution-wide or restricted to particular courses. FLAX, an extension to Greenstone, allows the text within a collection to be used as the basis of language learning exercises, under teacher control. The scheme is freely available for download as a Moodle module.
