Using the Library Reading List Tool in Blackboard
Tips for UTSA faculty on using this self-service tool to manage course readings
Use Blank Form to request new items not owned by the library in any format.
Login to Blackboard > select a course > select Tools on the course menu > select Library Reading List Tool.
Create a Reading List > click > select a Blank Form.
Fill out the Blank Form or upload a file. Please note that depending on your screen size and resolution, you may have to scroll down to view the entire Blank Form.
Indicate your preferred Type, e.g. e-book vs. book, video, etc. Add a Public Note for the library staff, e.g. I prefer streaming media. Click Add.
If your course is not yet loaded in Blackboard, please contact libreserve@utsa.edu to request new materials not owned by the Libraries. Streaming media and some books / e-books require additional processing time and may take several weeks to get. Please submit your request as far in advance as possible to ensure timely access for your students. The Libraries team will communicate with you throughout the process.
