The document discusses how London South Bank University uses their learning management system (LMS) and Aspire database to manage reading lists. It compares LMS and Aspire data to manage book stock. It also describes how the university adds new book editions to reading lists, adds eBook URLs to print bookmarks, and uses an MS Access database for management reporting. This helps subject librarians ensure reading list coverage and allows reporting list coverage percentages and review requests to senior managers.
