Get the Most Out of Talis Reading Lists 

Talis Module Resource Lists provide university students with easy access to the resources they need for their courses. Here's a quick overview of the key features and how to make the most of this helpful platform: 

Finding Your Reading Lists Accessing your reading lists is simple - just search for the module title or code on the Talis website.  

Accessing Resources One of the best things about Talis is how it seamlessly integrates both physical and digital resources. You can quickly see which books are available in the library, and you'll find direct links to access any online materials like eBooks, journal articles, and websites. 

Creating a User Profile By creating a free Talis user profile with your UHI email, you'll unlock additional features like the ability to: 

  • Add personal notes to any list item 

  • Set reading intentions (e.g. "will read," "reading now," "have read") 

  • Save lists for easy future access 

To create a profile, go to Talis Resorce Lists and log in with your student email and password. When you log in for the first time, select "Create User Profile" and follow the on-screen instructions. Once you've completed the form, set your profile to "Private" and save the changes. 

Table of Contents The table of contents feature makes easy to navigate long reading lists. You can quickly jump to specific sections, like the resources for a particular week. 

Filtering Lists Talis offers various filtering options to customize your view. For example, if you're studying off-campus, you can choose to only see resources that are available online. You can also filter the list to show the items you've marked with specific reading intentions or the ones you've added personal notes to. 

Exporting Lists Need to download or share your reading list? Talis allows you to export it in various formats like PDF and Word. 

Reporting Issues If you ever come across a broken link or other problem with a resource, you can report it directly from the Talis platform. You can report anonymously but if you leave your contact details, we’ll let you know when the issue is fixed, and you can access the resource again! 

Overall, Talis is a powerful tool that puts all your course readings at your fingertips. Take advantage of its features to stay organised, access materials efficiently, and get the most out of your studies.
