How to edit your reading list
To create sections in a reading list:
- Click the "+ Add" button and select "New section"
- Add a title for your section. The description and dates are optional. You can also select where you would like to add it.
- Click "Add" when you are done.
- Repeat to add more sections.
Sections can be expanded or collapsed using the toggle section view icon located near the top of the page.
To reorder sections, make sure the sections are collapsed first before dragging them on the left-hand side.
Sections can be edited by clicking the "..." button on the right-hand side and selecting "Edit Section."
Deleting Items
Click the "..." button and select "Delete item."
Sorting Citations
There are two options for sorting citations within a list: Sort All to sort an entire list and Drag and Drop to reorder citations (or entire sections within the list) via clicking and dragging.
Sort All
At the top right-hand corner of the reading list, click on "..." and you will find "Sort items within sections." This gives the option of sorting citations by title or author.
Drag and Drop
If you hover your mouse over a citation you will see a purple bar with six dots at the far left side of the box. Place your mouse over the purple bar, click and hold to move the citation within the section or to another section in the reading list.
Favorites
If you would like to add the same material in multiple lists, you can add items from your Favorites.
- To add an item from a reading list to your favorites, click "..." for that selected reading then "Save to favorites."
- To add item from Favorites to a reading list, click "+Add" and "Add from favorites." You can select which section to add it to or drag and drop the citation.
Additional Editing Options
Click on the resource to view other editing options.
- You can add a public note to communicate information to students such as page numbers or reminders. Citation public notes are visible when viewing the reading list.
- You can add a private note, which will only appear to list owners; ie. instructors, instructional designers, TAs, or other approved administrative staff.
