Using the D2L Question Library

The Question Library is a central repository that stores and archives questions which you can reuse within a course. You can create multiple collections within the Question Library to organize your questions by type and topic, making it easier for you to find questions for your quizzes, surveys, and self-assessments. Consolidating questions within Question Library enables you to efficiently transfer questions to new courses using the Copy Course Components feature as well as utilize Random Pools for questions in Quizzes.

To Access the Question Library:

Select Quizzes from the Assessments dropdown menu.
Select the Question Library tab.
