No. Your Lynda.com learning history is not migrated to LinkedIn Learning. 

Due to the change in platform State Library advised all Lynda.com users in May of the need to download their learning history from Lynda.com as migration of individual users history to LinkedIn Learning was not possible. 

State Library members now have access to the entire library of over 16,000 courses, including courses in English, French, German, Japanese, Spanish, Mandarin, and Portuguese. Previously with Lynda.com, patrons only had access to 7000 English courses.

No, State Library members only need their State Library username and password to access LinkedIn Learning

You can however manually create a post in your personal LinkedIn profile, to let your followers know when you have completed a course or gained a new skills.
