The College of Humanities and Social Science is funding two student interns to work on uploading resource lists to Talis Aspire over the summer, so we are keen to have as many reading lists as possible submitted for them to work on.
There are two options for ALL Course Organisers creating NEW resource lists for session 2015/16
Option 1. Create the resource list yourself using Talis Aspire, include the additional information requested by the Library and publish your list by *7th August*. The Library will then review your list and process any e-reserve requests, course (print) reserve and book recommendations.
Option 2. Send your reading lists to the Library by *13th July*, provide the additional information requested, and the Library will process any e-reserve requests, course (print) reserve and book recommendations and hand the list back over to you for publication.
Existing Talis Aspire users are asked to review and republish their lists by *7th August* and to use ‘Note for Library’ on Talis Aspire to provide the additional information required by the Library. The Library will then review your list and process any e-reserve requests, course (print) reserve and book recommendations.
NB: The above deadlines are for Semester One resource lists. We will circulate further deadlines for Semester two in due course.
Guidance on how to manage new and existing resource lists (using Talis Aspire) and the information required by the Library to process any e-reserve requests, course (print) reserve and book recommendations is provided on the website: http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/information-services/research-teaching-staff/resource-lists/using-resource-lists/overview
Due to demand we’ve scheduled a further two introductory Resource Lists (using Talis Aspire) workshops for academic staff this July.
The events are bookable via MyEd:
Wed 8th July 10-12pm ML 1.12: https://www.events.ed.ac.uk/index.cfm?event=book&scheduleID=15164
Thurs 9th July 2-4pm ML 1.08 : https://www.events.ed.ac.uk/index.cfm?event=book&scheduleID=15165
If you have any questions please get in touch: Library.Learning@ed.ac.uk
More information on how to make the most of Resource Lists can be found on the Resource Lists using Talis Aspire webpage and the ResourceLists@Edinburgh Blog.
