What do I do to get the library "widget" inside my Moodle course?

You can embed the live chat (instant message) widget into your Moodle page, to provide your students direct, online access to one of the SBCC librarians during the library’s open hours.

Follow these steps in Moodle:

The editing on, at the right side of your course page, select BLOCK

select from that "Add" list HTML

With this new block choose the icon (a hand with a pen in it) to configure the block

Make a title (such as Contact a Librarian, Live Help from a Librarian)

Toggle to HTML -- on the second toolbar, above the empty box, you’ll see < >. Select that icon.

Copy and paste in all of the following into the html box.

<iframe frameborder="1" src="http://libraryh3lp.com/chat/ask-sbcc-lib@chat.libraryh3lp.com?skin=10660&theme=gtalk&title=Live%20Chat%20with%20Librarian&identity=sbcc-lib&sounds=1""" style="border: 1px solid rgb(197, 197, 197); width: 175px; height: 300px;"></iframe>
