My Reading List Guide

Guide for module leaders to create reading lists using My Reading List powered by Leganto software

Using the same reading list for more than one module

The same reading list can be used with more than one module. Where you have several modules, for example, module A and module B that both use the same reading list, you only need to create the list once.

First create your reading list in one of the Canvas modules that you need to use it for.  For example, create it in module A. Then use the following procedure:

1. Go to your other module (module B in this example) and click on My Reading list on the left-hand menu.  This will create a My Reading list instance which you can use.

2. Go back to the original module (module A in this example) and open the reading list you have created.

3. From the reading list screen, illustrated below, Click on the list info at the top of the screen and choose the associate list to module(s) option.

4. A popup box will allow you to choose which additional module(s)  you want to associate the reading list to; select the module(s) you want.

5. The reading list is now associated to a second module.  You can choose to associate to an additional module at this point.  If you wish to disassociate a module, you can select the bin icon.
