Reading List Update for Teaching Staff

Create / update your module reading lists for 2024-2025

Advice for adding library resources to a new Aspire list and updating an existing list

Empty reading lists are being created in Aspire for new and returning modules requiring a list. Once you have added some content to your reading list, it will be linked to the appropriate Blackboard module by Library staff.

Remember you can also add links to sections in your reading lists.

When updating your Aspire reading list content for the coming year, be sure to update the 2024-2025 edition of your reading list. If you add books to 2023-2024 reading lists they will not be purchased. FYI 2023-2024 Aspire reading lists will remain visible in 2023-2024 Blackboard modules until the end of August when they will be archived.

Subject LibGuides

The Subject LibGuides have been updated to ensure that all the links are working and all the books listed are their most recent edition, meaning they are better than ever! Each LibGuide has been tailored to a specific subject, meaning that the information is specialised to what you are looking for. This is where you can be directed to and book a meeting with your subject librarian, find out about which books you should read, referencing help, and much more! If you are struggling with referencing, assignments, or your dissertation, this is the place to go. The LibGuides are very easy to use, with clear signposting and information layout.
