The deadline by which you need to submit your 2025-26 reading lists:
Monday 23rd June: This deadline is for all modules
This deadline is in place to maximise the chances of the Library having necessary resources available for students in good time, as poor availability negatively impacts the student experience and NSS scores.
We are now at the time of year where we ask you to confirm your reading lists for the next academic year. Lists for 2025/26 are now available in draft form on Talis Aspire and are only visible once you log in to the system.
Submitting a reading list
If there are no changes to your reading list, you still need to publish the list to make it visible to students.
Please log into Talis Aspire and find your 2025/26 draft list by searching for the module code.
Press ‘publish’ to make the draft list visible to students. This also lets us know that there are no changes, and we will mark the list as received.
If you do want to make changes to your list:
Log into Talis Aspire to edit your list. To find your list, search for the module code and ensure you are accessing the 2025/26 draft version.
When you have updated your list, you will need to click ‘publish’ in the top right-hand corner to make your changes visible and to notify the library.
It is always possible to add items to your list or make changes, however, please note that adding items in a timely manner ensures the library has enough time to source these items for your students.
Reading List Submission Deadline: Monday 23rd June.
This deadline is in place to ensure the library has enough time to source the material needed for students ahead of the start of term.
We understand there may be changes to module leaders, and we recognize that not everyone may be able to meet this deadline. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you require any additional assistance or support.
We are available throughout the summer to support you, and we will send regular reminders.
Support
You can contact your Teaching and Engagement Librarian with any questions that you might have. They are also available for 1-1 appointments to provide more detailed support; these are available to book online.
You can also use our Reading List Guide for further information and guidance.
As always if there are any questions, please let us know.
