To publicise the recommended reading to your students effectively, use the University online reading list system. The Library aims to stock at least one copy of all items on your reading lists.
Reading listsImproving students' academic skills
You may wish to help your students to further enhance their academic skills (e.g. essay writing, referencing, etc.). Your Academic Librarian is happy to discuss ways of assisting you in embedding academic skills teaching into your module(s), so why not make an appointment with them? In addition you might want to point students who need help to our "Get the Know-How" workshops and online courses.
