To help you manage your time and reading more effectively, there are lots of extra things you can do with your reading list:
Use the Table of Contents
You can use the Table of Contents button at the top left of the list to find and go to a particular section or week of the list. Just click on the section you want to access.
Search for authors/titles within your list
You can use the box on the top right to filter your list and search for a specific title or author. The list will only display items with that title or author.
Filtering the list for ‘Beowulf’ means that all items with ‘Beowulf’ in the title are displayed. You can clear a search by clicking ‘Clear search’.
Filter the list by type of material
Use the 'Type: All' box to filter the list by the type of material.
In this example there are 307 items in this reading list (it's a big reading list!). If you just wanted to check what articles are available you can click on the 'Article' link and the 140 articles in the list will be filtered.
Filter the list for personal reading preferences
If you want to mark up your reading list to show your reading preferences, then click on the circle on the right-hand side and a drop down box will display a list of options for you to click.
If you click on the three vertical dots you can access the actions menu. Here, you have the option to add a personal note to the bookmark in the list. No one else can see these notes!
Notes are personal to you, so you’ll need to scroll up to the top of the page, and click ‘Log in’. Enter your University of Exeter username and password to log into the reading list.
You can use the box on the top right of your list to filter your reading preferences, essential and further reading and items with your personal notes.
Once you have selected a filter, you will only see items in that category (an item could be in more than one category at once). To clear a filter, scroll to the top and click ‘Clear filter’.
Create a bibliography from your reading list
You can view your list in a particular citation style by clicking the Citation Style button on the top left of the list. Make sure you check that any citations produced match your department's requirements for referencing.
