Module leads are responsible for creating and maintaining reading lists in Canvas. From July 2021, the library is introducing an exciting, new reading list system called 'My Reading List', which integrates with Canvas and Hunter, the library search tool, to facilitate quick and easy access to key readings and resources for academic modules.

My Reading List

The Library's new Reading List service is now live and here to help you.  My Reading List integrates with Canvas and Hunter to facilitate quick and easy access to key resources for your academic modules.

For staff

Creating and managing reading and resource lists for your students has just become a whole lot more dynamic, for both staff and students. Use our intuitive online reading list system to easily connect your students with resources – such as books, journal articles, videos and websites – for your module.

The Library has developed a LibGuide to help you set up reading lists for your modules. Here you will find video tutorials and information about how to add items to your lists, request scanned chapters from our print holdings and items we don’t currently have in stock.

To use My Reading List you must be registered with the Library.  If you are not currently registered, please click here to complete a registration form.

For more information or support with creating reading lists, contact your Liaison Librarian.

For students

Reading lists are created by your tutors and the Library purchases the resources so you don’t have to.

You can access My Reading List from the left-hand side of your Canvas module navigation.

If you discover a broken reading list link within one of your modules, please email details to liaison@sgul.ac.uk and we will ensure to resolve this for you.
