Resource lists - information for students
What are resource lists?
Resource lists are online reading lists created for you by your lecturers, giving you easy access to all your course reading materials in one place. Resource lists will provide you with direct links to any ebooks and journal articles that may be included on your list, as well as the library location and availability of any print books. Your lecturers will tag the resources to indicate their importance level to you, either essential reading, recommended reading or further reading. The library has made sure that all books on your resource list are available online where possible.
You can access your resource list from your module within GCULearn. Alternatively, you can search for your list on the resource lists homepage.
