What are online reading lists?
Online Reading Lists enable academic staff to create interactive, online reading lists that link directly to online materials and provide information about finding printed materials in the Library. The system is a direct response to students' requests for better access to Library resources.
If you're a first time user, visit our Get Started page for an introductory guide to Online Reading Lists. You can also email Lib.Reading@uea.ac.uk if you have any questions about Online Reading Lists or need any help.
We strongly recommend using the Google Chrome web browser when working with Talis reading lists.

Rollover 17/18
All online reading lists have will be rolled over on Monday 15th May, at which point draft versions of 2017/18 lists will be available for updating. These draft lists will contain all the content already present on the 2016/17 lists, so you will only need to add new readings and/or edit the order of the list.
Please note you will need to republish your reading list by the 31st July for the Library to be able to check your list and acquire any resources needed to support your teaching.
Find out more about the 2017/18 reading lists rollover, including a quick guide to updating your lists, on our Rollover page.
