FAQs

Can Library staff make changes to my reading list on my behalf?

How do I embed weekly reading list sections in Moodle?

On Monday 12th August a new Talis Aspire list edit screen will be introduced with the aim of making updating reading lists more intuitive and create a much-improved user experience.  You will no longer need to select Edit > Edit List as the options to edit will be visible as you scroll over your list.

A video demo explaining the new list edit options can be found below, you can also find instructions on the 'Editing Lists' section of this guide.  Library staff will be leading demo sessions in PC Labs at the beginning of September (more details to follow).  

Please email library@mmu.ac.uk if you would like access to the new edit screen sooner and we will arrange this for you.

For information and support, contact your Subject Librarian.
