Oxford Reading Lists Online (ORLO): Training

Training

If your department is new to ORLO, then please contact orlo@bodleian.ox.ac.uk for more information. If your department already uses ORLO then please contact your subject librarian to arrange training. Introductory training is required for all ORLO list owners; you will be given your list editing permissions during training OR after an academic/administrator/staff member has confirmed they have consulted the LibGuide self-help materials.

Training: booking is available via our iSkills page - the next training dates are:
Tuesday 17th December, 14:00-15:30
Thursday 9th January 2025, 10:30-12:00

iSkills training is held via Teams, usually timetabled monthly. To see dates and times and book onto a training session, please see our iSkills page.

Watch a recording of a previous training session here (SSO required). If you cannot attend a training session, please watch this recording and then email orlo@bodleian.ox.ac.uk to confirm this and receive ORLO permissions.

We will shortly be replacing the videos in this section; you can then use them to learn to create lists for ORLO. They cover all the material we cover in our training sessions. Watch the videos in the order suggested. You can use the "ORLO Practice list" to create a practice list in ORLO. A completed version of the list is here, which you can use to check your practice list.
