In keeping with modern trends in higher education and to support remote learning, the Library and Information Service, SU in close consultation with academic departments and the Centre for Learning Technologies during the last term of 2020 implemented an online Course Reading Lists system. Course Reading Lists, powered by Leganto© from Ex Libris, enable lecturers to build and manage their reading lists directly from within SUNLearn.
Course Reading Lists allows lecturers to build and manage their reading lists from within SUNLearn. Lecturers can include diverse content from the Library and elsewhere, such as books, articles, open educational resources, websites, streaming media, digitised content and course notes, in a single list. The reading lists are synchronised with existing library collections. In doing so, Course Reading Lists adds both print and electronic materials to the same lists and shows the real-time availability of both.Student usage reports are available to help lecturers determine how effective their reading lists are and what materials students engage with most, through views, comments and likes. A discussion feature can also be enabled if you so choose, enabling students to participate in discussions on the reading list. With the annual roll-over function of Course Reading Lists, reading lists no longer have to be resubmitted to the Library on an annual basis – rather, they can simply be reused and updated.
Course Reading Lists allows for hybrid learning and aims to improve the accessibility of up-to-date resource list materials for students’ ease of use in e-learning. The lists have a standardised format and structure in SUNLearn and are also therefore online accessible, from any device.Students access Course Reading Lists from within their course in SUNLearn. They can interact with their lists by marking citations as read and liking those citations which they enjoy. If enabled by the lecturer, students can view upcoming due dates by when material needs to be read and can partake in student discussions on their lists. They can suggest content for their reading lists, add private notes and tags to their reading lists and report broken links to the Library.

In lyn met moderne tendense in hoër onderwys en om afstandsleer te ondersteun, het die Biblioteek- en Inligtingsdiens, in noue samewerking met akademiese departemente en die Sentrum vir Leertegnologieë, gedurende die laaste kwartaal van 2020 'n aanlyn Kursusleeslysstelsel geïmplementeer. Kursusleeslyste, aangedryf deur Leganto van Ex Libris, stel dosente in staat om die leeslyste vir hul kursusse vanuit SUNLearn te bou en te bestuur.
Vir dosettKursusleeslyste stel dosente in staat om hul leeslyste in SUNLearn te bou en te bestuur. Dosente kan diverse inhoud soos boeke, artikels, oop opvoedkundige hulpbronne, webtuistes, video's, gedigitaliseerde inhoud en kursusnotas van die Biblioteek en elders in 'n enkele leeslys insluit. Die leeslyste is met bestaande biblioteekversamelings gesinkroniseer. Gedrukte en elektroniese materiaal word op een lys byeengebring en intydse beskikbaarheid word vir beide aangedui.Gebruiksverslae is beskikbaar om dosente te help om die effektiwiteit van hul leeslyste en watter materiaal studente die meeste gebruik deur besigtiging, kommentaar en “likes" te bepaal. Indien verkies, kan 'n opsie aangeskakel word wat studente toelaat om aan besprekings op die lys deel te neem. Met behulp van Kursusleeslyste se oordragfunksie hoef leeslyste nie jaarliks by die Biblioteek heringedien te word nie; die lyste kan eenvoudig opgedateer en hergebruik word.
Kursusleeslyste maak hibriede leer moontlik en poog om studente toegang te bied tot die nuutste bronnelysmateriaal wat vir e-leer benodig word. Die lyste het 'n standaardformaat en –struktuur in SUNLearn en is aanlyn toeganklik vanaf enige toestel.Studente het toegang tot Kursusleeslyste vanuit hul kursus in SUNLearn. Hulle kan verwysings as gelees merk en dié verwysings wat hulle geniet “like". Indien deur die dosent geaktiveer, kan studente naderende sperdatums vir die lees van materiaal sien en aan studentebesprekings op die lys deelneem. Hulle kan inhoud vir hul leeslyste aanbeveel, privaat notas en etikette (“tags") by verwysings voeg en gebreekte skakels aan die Biblioteek rapporteer.
