Your reading list determines what we order and how many copies we buy for your students.

Each term, we'll email you to remind you to update your reading lists. You need to:

1. bookmark and publish your new lists
2. check and update your existing 2020/21 draft reading lists
3. publish your lists, so that we know what you need.

We will process every list you publish. This table helps you prioritise when to publish your reading lists.

Green

We'll review your lists. We have the best chance of delivering your resources for the beginning of term and we'll tell you if there's anything we're unable to buy. 

If you rely on DVDs for your module, ordering now gives us the best chance of sourcing them.

Amber

We'll review your lists, but this is our peak ordering period. Your lists will join a queue and delivery times may be longer.

Red

We'll review your lists, but it's unlikely that new or extra resources will be available until later in the term. During the Autumn Term we will review all lists in the order they arrive. From November, we'll prioritise ordering for Spring Term lists over Autumn Term lists.
