Description

Availability

Limited: Available specifically to courses within specific Canvas department sub-accounts – which include the Graduate, Nicholas, Pratt, Sanford and Trinity schools. This tool is not available to any other schools and departments.

Overview

The Course Reserves tool (also known as Leganto by Ex Libris) is an online solution for creating, fulfilling, and viewing course reading lists for instructors, librarians, and students. Instructors and librarians can collaboratively create and process reading lists for students. Once you begin adding materials to your course list, library staff will then process the request and make materials available to students.

Duke Libraries provides Leganto to faculty. Learn more at Duke Libraries - Course Reserves.
