LSE Library is changing reading list systems for the 2023-24 academic year (from Talis Aspire to Ex Libris Leganto). Please see the Reading lists @ LSE Moodle course for more info. We’ll update the quick guide below soon. |
Why use it?
Talis Aspire Reading lists are created outside of Moodle via a system looked after by the LSE libraryLibrary team. For more details see the Reading lists @LSE guideMoodle course.
Linking to the Talis Aspire Reading list ensures that students have a consistent experience across their courses, they can tag reading readings (have read/will read) and add notes. It means that you are linking to electronic journal articles and ebooks correctly and within copyright requirements. It also ensures that the library Library have access to your reading list data so the content can be acquired for you.

Choose an Activity name, such as “Week x readings”. This is what will appear in Moodle.
Then click Save and display.
Depending on your browser a new window will pop up (make sure that your browser is not blocking the pop up). You may be asked to authenticate your username - please click on any ‘key’ icons or enter your username and password if prompted to do so
Note: Embedding a reading list in Moodle can potentially cause some access issues in some browsers.
The solution would be to change the display of the reading list to open in a new tab/existing window which will avoid the authentication problem for all users.
To do this, In the settings page, under General, click Show more… to view more settings.
Change the Launch container to New window and/or Existing window.
Then click Save and display.
Step 3: Add list section
If you are prompted to authenticate, enter your LSE account details.
If you have a reading list with the same course code as your Moodle course, it should automatically appear in the window or be displayed. Alternatively, you can search for a list in the search bar.
