Reading Lists: Guide for Copyright Staff

Langara Reading Lists shared mailbox

The Langara Reading Lists mailbox (readinglists@langara.ca) is monitored by the Library's Reading Lists team members (Copyright Technician, Copyright Librarian, Systems Administrator, and Systems Librarian). 

Langara instructors can email readinglists@langara.ca to request: (1) a Talis Aspire account, or (2) technical support with the platform. When an instructor requests a reading list review, the notification is also sent to this mailbox. 

Follow Langara IT's instructions for managing shared mailbox permissions to add the Langara Reading Lists to your Outlook mailboxes.
