Reading Lists @ Liverpool can help you enhance the student experience of your module and teaching sessions.
It allows you to create an accessible list that is easy for your students to navigate.
You can annotate your list with student notes and organise your list to suit your teaching whether this is by week, topic or seminar.
With direct links to online resources and clear location details for print resources, students can easily access the material you are recommending.
Reading Lists are the best way to order new material for teaching or request digitisations of book chapters or journal articles.
Just add to your list, send for review or request digitisation, and the Library team will review and purchase as necessary.
