Let us set up your online reading list(s) for you!
The Library team will create your online module reading list(s) for the academic year 2023/2024.
All you have to do is send your reading list to subject.team@dcu.ie and include the following information:
- Instructor name(s) and school
- Module name and code
- Number of students taking the module
- Indicate which items are essential or supplementary reading
If there are items on your reading list(s) that we don’t have, we’ll order them.
You don’t have to send us a final version either.
Once we set up your online reading list, it will be easy to add/remove material as needed.
