Talis MyReadingList
Talis MyReadingList is a service supported by the TCD Library team that helps you to manage your module reading lists efficiently and improve your students' learning experience. It can provide students with real-time information on the availability of reading material and full-text access to electronic resources. You can add MyReadingList to your Blackboard module to make it easy for students to access their list alongside other module material.

Adding MyReadingList to Your Blackboard Module
Once you have set up MyReadingList following the steps on the Library website, you can link it to your Blackboard module for easy access by your students. You will also need to link to your list again in your new modules after the yearly Blackboard rollover each summer.
Under Details and Actions on the right-hand side of the screen, you will find a link to Third Party Tools. The window that opens lists available tools, including Blackboard Ally, MyReadingList (Talis Aspire), Panopto, Turnitin, and Grades Journey.

Check Your Reading List
If you haven't already, ensure you link to your MyReadingList. Go to Third Party Tools
If you don't have a link to your reading list in your course, click the + icon in your main module content, select Add Third Party Tool, and choose MyReadingList.
