Which is why Stephen and myself attended the Library training on Talis Aspire training on how to create and manage an electronic reading list – ReadingLists @ Leicester<\/em>.<\/p>\n Advantages of using this system include:<\/p>\n Stephen and I are already working with Sociology, Media & Communication, and Economics on how electronic reading lists can be utilised, so please get in touch<\/a>\u00a0(University login required) if you’d like to discuss how you could be using them too.<\/p>\n The below are a series of images capturing the essence of creating a bookmark and reading list.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\n

\nThe training will take you through accessing the reading list website, saving preferences, setting up the Firefox browser, saving browser ‘favourites’ to make the pinning of resources easy, etc.<\/p>\n\n
