Advice for teaching staff

Use your course reading lists to help your students identify and access the correct textbooks:

  • Publish your reading lists in Talis Aspire (UQ login required) as soon as possible. UQ Course Design Policy notes that readings should be published at least 5 weeks before the start of the course.

    Visit the Publish course reading lists guide for help with accessing, editing, and maintaining your lists.
  • Direct students to their course reading lists to confirm their textbooks. 
  • Remove links to School Locker subject pages from your course materials as they are no longer available.

Email learningresources@library.uq.edu.au if you need help publishing your course reading list.
