4. What is the Resource Lists service?
Create, manage and provide access to online reading lists
The system we use is called Leganto
Course organisers can invite colleagues to collaborate on lists
Templates are available to help course organisers structure lists
Lists are publically available, but can be restricted to EASE users
Add any resource with a web address to a list
Books, book chapters, e-books, journal articles, websites
Resources on lists are prioritised using tags and can be filtered
Complies with the University’s Accessible and Inclusive Learning Policy
Increased functionality for students
Access through the VLE
Students can discuss resources, and suggest new ones, for a list
Create a collection of resources and use tags to manage them
Export to MS Word in a chosen citation style

10. Why is the Library supporting online reading lists?
1. To improve the student experience
Makes core texts available in sufficient quantities (print) or accessible (electronic)
Provides students with easy and consistent access to core reading materials
2. To make it easier for academics to use Library services
Single entry point to Library services
Saves time – lists are easy to maintain and can be rolled over each year

12. How the Library purchases resources for teaching
Decisions based on student numbers and priority of resources**
*New books only
**Exceptions for MVM

13. The small print
The latest available edition will be added to a list if held, or purchased if not (if you would like a specific edition make this clear)
The Library has an e-preference policy
If a title is out of print a single copy will be sourced (if possible)
10% of a book, or one chapter/article, can be scanned
New books will be located in the relevant site library for the course

14. Requesting scans (E-reserve)
The E-reserve team produces copyright compliant digital extracts of course readings for academic staff, to support learning and teaching.
E-reserve can reproduce extracts of up to: 
one chapter of a book
one article of a journal issue
one paper of one set of conference proceedings
one report of a single case from a report of judicial proceedings
one short story or one poem or one play of not more than 10 pages in an anthology of short stories, poems or plays
Or 10% of the whole (whichever is the greater).
Digitisation (scan) requests can be made directly from a resource list using the ‘Digitisation’ tag and adding notes (chapter details or page numbers) to ‘Library discussion’
