If you want a reference to be digitized, the reference MUST be filled in correctly and the correct page number must be included.

You are automatically allowed to digitize 15% of a book, and 1 article from one issue of a journal. Excerpts beyond 15% must be clarified with Kopinor. 

To request digitization, press "Add digitization request" directly below the reference and select "Digitization request":


 

In order for the library to process the digitization requests before the start of the semester, the deadline for submitting the reading list must be met: 

• April 15th for autumn courses 
• November 1st for spring courses

The deadline for submitting your reading list for publishing is 15 April for autumn courses, and 1 November for spring courses. 

When you are finished editing the reading list, do the following: 

1. Click on "Send list to library for publishing" from the reading list in Leganto:
   
   
2. The library will then check and publish the reading list, as well as purchase relevant books, process digitization requests and reporting to Kopinor/Bolk.

IMPORTANT! In order for the library to make the list available in Canvas, the subject must be registered in FS with the correct information about the semester, course code and course coordinators.

Contact FS at your faculty/department if you are unsure if the course is registered.  

Students will not be able to access the reading list until it is published. 

We recommend that the course coordinator informs Akademika that published reading lists are found via the specific course page on student.oslomet.no. External users can also find the reading lists via the course pages.

You can also share a list directly from Leganto by clicking on the three dots to the right of the reading list name, selecting "Create a shareable link", or by exporting the list by clicking "Export" and choose Word or PDF:

The library has two suggestions for how the study leader/program coordinator etc. can approve the reading list. 

Option 1: 

1. Course coordinators edit their reading list and notify their study leader/program coordinator etc. 
2. Study leader/program coordinator are given access to the list. Once they have approved the list they click "Send list to library for publishing" in Leganto. 

Once sent, the library will review and publish the reading list.

Option 2: 

1. Course coordinators edit their list, downloads the reading list as a pdf/word document and forward it to the study leader/program coordinator. (See the next section "Sharing a reading list"). 
2. The approver notifies the course coordinator when it has been approved. 
3. The course coordinator clicks "Send list to library for publishing" in Leganto. 
    

Once sent, the library will review and publish the reading list.
