Adding the Readings tool to a Unit Space

Readings provides access to online reading lists in VU Collaborate units for required and optional readings. To create a reading list in Readings you need to add the eReserve / Readings to your VU Collaborate unit space. Once added, staff can click on it to create, open and manage a reading list within the unit space.
