Angie Donoghue (Senior Information Adviser, Virtual Learning Centre Team) has this to say on Reading Lists;
Now is a great time for you to be thinking about reading lists. Maybe you need to get some new resources ordered for next year. Maybe you don’t yet have your reading list available electronically via the Library Catalogue or in your Blackboard sites.
Despite your best efforts do you still find your students reluctant to either do the core reading or read around their subject and think critically to evaluate what they have read?
The reading list software gives you the opportunity to annotate the items on lists so that students can get a very clear idea of the purpose of your recommendations and your expectations of them. Items in the list link directly to the Library Catalogue records to show availability. You can get print texts digitised and added to your lists and also make links directly to full text journal articles and websites if you wish.
