Students must enroll first, then they will be able to change their password at any time, even if they do not remember what it currently is. Students may also call the Help Desk during regular business hours have assistance with enrolling or changing their password.

Canvas strives to make all its products as accessible as possible. JAWS for Windows 11 and 12 were used during accessibility testing.
Canvas Learn requires the latest version of Sun JRE 6. The JRE can be downloaded from
.  JRE 7 is not supported.
The following technologies are not supported:
Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7
Firefox 1.x, 2.0, 3.0, and 3.5
Safari 2.0, 3.x  (or any version on Windows)
Mac OSX 10.4 "Tiger"
Java 5
Internet Explorer 8 and Internet Explorer 9 are tested in Standards Mode. Some known issues can be resolved by using Compatibility Mode (emulates IE7 behavior).
Both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox have moved to a rapid release cycle.  At the time of testing, Chrome 16.0 and Firefox 9.0 were the latest available versions.  Since then, new stable versions may have been released and widely adopted.  Canvas is supporting all newer stable versions of Chrome and Firefox.
Canvas vs OSRS
Online Student Record System (OSRS)
Students at RLC have two online accounts, one for OSRS and one for Canvas. OSRS is used for retrieving information about your RLC account, such as grades, schedules, or an unofficial transcript. Your OSRS is created when you enroll. Your username and password for OSRS are the same ones you use to access Canvas. If you forget your OSRS password, call the help desk, 618-437-5321 ext. 1259 for assistance.
Canvas
Canvas is RLC's online course management software suite. All RLC online courses, and several face-to-face courses will use Canvas to easily pass information from instructor to student. Your Canvas account will be created by RLC staff. Each student should have a maximum of one Canvas account. Call the help desk if you encounter any issues with this. Your Canvas account will remain the same regardless of how many semesters or how many online courses you enroll in at RLC. If you forget your Canvas password, call the help desk, 618-437-5321 ext. 1259 for assistance.
Accessing the Learning Resource Center Off-Campus
In order to be able to access the Electronic Library away from the campus you will need to use your student credentials.
When you access the Electronic Library away from the campus you will use the same information you use to log onto your Canvas, Online Student Records, and Warrior Mail Accounts.
Your login name is your last name, first initial, and last 4 digits of your Warrior tag.
Your password is one that the computer-generated or the one that you set up.
You will be asked for this information when you click the links within the Electronic Library.
If you need further assistance with your account contact
