Reading Lists

A guide to creating, editing and managing your list

Option 2: Add items manually

Where an item is not in stock yet or is an information type beyond the Library collections, you are able to use the Manual Entry function to complete a form which will add the details to the reading list. 

  1. Click on +Add at the top of the list page and select Manual Entry.

  1. Select the Type of resources e.g. book, article, website etc.
  2. Work through the fields adding the necessary bibliographic information.

 

  1. Once the fields are complete, choose which section of the reading list you want to add it to, along with the importance tag. e.g. Essential, Background.
  2. Click Add
 

The selected item will now appear on your reading list. Where the item is a book that is not in stock, an automated process will be initiated to create a purchase order for the Library collection. The list will be updated once the item is added to stock.
