If you're looking for books for your subject, ideally you want to start by taking a look at your reading list. Each of your modules will have a reading list which your tutors have carefully chosen reading and resources for, to help you understand the topics being explored.
Reading lists may be arranged with weekly resources or a long list of essential or recommended material, and can be accessed via your modules on Blackboard or through the 'Access your reading lists' link below.
You can find more information on reading lists, including how to access and use them, on our Reading Lists: guide for students or by clicking on the image opposite.
Or, you can search by module name/code or tutor:
While your reading list is the best place to start in your early years at University, you will be expected to read beyond it and decide what to read in your independent study time for your creative practice and/or assignment research.
This means you will need to find and evaluate your own sources. Not everything you come across will be useful, reliable, or relevant. That’s why critical thinking is essential: you need to judge whether a source is trustworthy, up to date, and directly connected to your topic.
Learning to evaluate information critically helps you build stronger arguments, avoid misinformation, and develop the independent research skills that are key to academic and professional success.
