New Resource Lists tool Leganto, from the Library and Learning Resources (L&LR) Team, is now live for staff to access and work on their lists.

Resource Lists can be embedded directly into Moodle courses as an interactive learning and teaching tool.

With Resource Lists, staff can:

• Build resource lists or collaborate with others
• Add any kind of content, including but not limited to physical books, eBooks, eBook chapters, journal articles, videos, newspaper articles and more
• Request resources for purchase or digitisation directly from the library
• Allow students to easily access resource lists from Moodle
• Annotate lists to signpost specific sections of a source and highlight how a resource links to module learning outcomes or assessment – feedback shows that students value this feature
• Structure lists to mirror your Moodle structure e.g. weekly or by topic
• Discuss topics and resources with students using ‘Read and Respond’.

The L&LR Team is running online and in-person training sessions on the system over the summer. These events will give staff an opportunity to try out the functionality and work on their lists, with library staff on hand to support. If you would like to attend, book here.

Can’t make the dates? Book anyway and the team will send you the recording. Alternatively, contact your Collection Management and Engagement Librarian to arrange a one-to-one session.
