Sections are headings within a reading list that allow you to organize material. In this context, “section” does not refer to divisions of a course, i.e. class sections. All reading lists at UMD automatically have a Library Course Materials section. You can organize your reading list by adding additional sections for each week, module, chapter, or however else you choose.
Click on the +Add button. Select New Section.
Add a title for your section. The description and dates are optional. Choose where to add the section on your reading list.
Click Add when you are done.
Repeat to add more sections.
To reorder sections, collapse the section and drag it to its desired location using the left-hand side dots.
Edit sections by clicking the (…) three dots on the right-hand side and selecting Edit Section.
Click the "..." button and select Delete item.
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 an item from Favorites to a reading list, click the maroon +Add button and Add from favorites. You can select which section to add it to or drag and drop the citation.
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. 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).
