Teaching staff can now create or roll over Library Reading Lists for the second half of 2024.

Preparing and publishing a Library Reading List before the start of each study period will help the Reading List team to make purchases and make sure students have access to the resources they need.

Sending Reading Lists to the Library

You don’t need to wait until you have finished identifying relevant material to create your Reading List – just add items as they are selected. You can continue to add to your list throughout the study period, and you can communicate with the Library as you add new things. Click here to get started.

Open Educational Resources (OERs)

As students struggle through the cost of living crisis, selecting no-cost materials can make a huge difference. Browse Australian-content through the Open Educational Resources Collective, or get in touch with the Learning Success team to help identify relevant material. 

Creating A Sample Reading List

Teaching staff have requested the ability to make a Sample List (formerly called Parent List), and this feature has now been added.

Sample Reading Lists can be used as a template for other lists or courses. Instructors can discover Sample Reading Lists and copy the full list, specific sections, or individual citations to their Reading Lists from the Find Lists area.

Create your Sample Reading List using these instructions.

Have a question or need support?

Guided Tours are available by clicking on the Question Mark icon in the right top-hand pane of Reading Lists. A self-serve experience, Guided Tours will help you start using the Reading List software in real-time.

The interactive Reading Lists tutorial is Curtin Library’s online guide, and you can find quick answers to your questions or get more details on using Reading Lists.
