Reading Lists/Course Reserves
Course Reserves is a library service which enables faculty to set up lists of course materials they want their students to have access to for their course.
- The materials may be physical (such as books), which must be checked out at one of the University Libraries.
- Or they may be electronic (such as articles and streaming media), and accessible anywhere to current Ball State students.
Reading Lists is the application used to view the electronically accessible items, and can be integrated into Canvas course pages to simplify the discovery process for students.
