Leganto, our E-Reserves platform integrated with Brightspace, is a fantastic learning tool that simplifies access to a wide range of course resources. This includes everything from library materials to non-library content like licensed eBooks, articles, videos, PDFs, and websites.
With Leganto, reading lists become a dynamic part of the learning experience, fostering active engagement through social reading and read-and-respond assignments. Plus, it promotes affordable education by encouraging instructors to utilize library-licensed materials instead of requiring students to buy expensive textbooks. This way, we can help students save money while still providing them with the resources they need to succeed!
What are the Benefits of using Leganto?
Improving the Teaching and Learning Experience
Instructors can use Leganto’s analytics and commentary/discussion features to monitor material usage and gain insights into student activity and learning habits.
Workflow Efficiency
Leganto facilitates transparency in the processing workflow, reduces faculty’s need to rebuild course lists each semester, and provides more ownership of their reserves. Faculty can also collaborate with colleagues on lists for similar courses.
