RLO: Working with Reading Lists Online

It can be great to catch prospective students before they start at the University, when they are keen and excited about the prospect of starting their studies. Pre-arrival reading lists can give them a taste of what to expect when they come to us. The content of these lists need to be readily available, either open access or available webpages as the students will not have enrolled or have their login credentials. 

Here is an example of a pre-arrival list
