MyReadingList@TCD

"It essentially allows you to digitise your reading list and connect it to the library catalogue. Students have really liked it. They can export items, add notes and check instantly whether items are available in the Library. Surprisingly, I think this has made them more likely, rather than less likely, to actually go and find the books and read them".
(Dr. Jane Suzanne Carroll, Ussher Assistant Professor in Children's Literature)


"I just want to highlight how effective I found the reading list that my lecturer introduced at the start of the semester. To have the reading list linked to each week’s lecture was really beneficial to me.  I am only sorry that all my lecturers did not follow this example as it saved so much time on my part to have the readings under each lecture".
(Masters in Social Work student)
