Each unit of your course should have its own reading list, which is linked from BREO. Look for the Books & Tools and Reading List options in your unit.

Reading lists created by your course team list the reading you need to do for the unit.

The reading list is normally arranged in three sections:

• Core texts (sometimes known as key texts or essential texts) - these are the materials that your lecturer considers most important for the understanding of the module. They will usually give you an overview of the topic being studied. If we can, we will provide these as ebooks. Sometimes this is not possible.
• Guided Reading: reading that supports your lecturers/seminars. It could be: chapters from books, journal articles, audio visual material, webpages, newspaper articles, reports, legislation etc.
• Independent reading: suggestions of what else you can read to further your knowledge on a subject. If you want to get the highest grades you need to go beyond core and guided sections and read from these items.

Reading lists provide all the information about the item you want to read (and cite in an assignment), such as the author, title, date, but most importantly where you can access the item. This will be a link if the item is digital. If it is a printed book it will include the classmark you will need to find it on the shelves. If a link is broken there is a button you can use to report this to us.
