Abstract

In 2018 the University of Western Australia (UWA) implemented Leganto, transitioning from a reading list system that was completely library-managed to one which enabled academics to create and manage their own lists. At the end of our first semester with Leganto, 97% of reading lists were self-managed by academics. However, we had been initially doubtful whether self-management would be embraced, believing that time-poor academics would be reluctant to take on a more active role. In order to encourage academic staff, we developed a programme of training and promotion for the implementation of Leganto that resulted in levels of engagement that exceeded our expectations. This presentation will share how UWA achieved a high rate of self-management, why we were successful in gaining engagement with Leganto, and our lessons learnt. It will also provide insight into how Australian libraries are utilising Leganto, and their successes and challenges.
