What the University of Nebraska-Lincoln learned about scaling affordable learning across with Leganto reading list solution

When library innovation meets student success.

Faculty make decisions about course materials well before students enter the classroom. At many institutions, those decisions happen outside library workflows, limiting opportunities to connect teaching with library collections and services.

“Course material costs can change dramatically from semester to semester, which makes them hard for students to budget. This program gives students access to what they need on day one without having to spend hundreds of dollars at the bookstore.”
Melissa Gomis, chair of Collections Strategy and Open
Scholarship, University of Nebraska-Lincoln

This new whitepaper examines how the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has designed workflows that feature automation, AI and strategic human intervention to support course materials decisions from syllabus review through resource delivery.

“Students have immediate access to a large pool of materials —
without having to purchase anything.”
Amy Guevara, instructor, University of Nebraska-Lincoln
