Introduction

Module Resource Lists 

This service provides easy access to course reading for students on the Talis Aspire platform. You can find your lists by searching the module title or code. Many modules have list content embedded directly in the VLE. Although Talis is primarily used for HE lists, there are an increasing number of FE lists and general interest. Core features include:

  • real-time information on library book availability
  • quick links to online resources, including eBooks, articles, databases
  • videos from sites like Linked In learning, youtube and other multimedia
  • curated resources chosen by your lecturer
  • the ability to save your most frequently used lists and other personalisation features detailed in this guide
  • notes to highlight specific sections of a resource or the main themes

Further guidance on using Talis Aspire is available in the Students and Staff sections of the Resource List guide.

Talis also provide an overview of list features for students on their support pages.
