Leganto Overview

These resources are organized into reading lists, created by your instructors, within the Blackboard Ultra Course. This organization allows you to find learning materials quickly and efficiently.

Managing Lists

- Adding Items to Favorites: You can add items from the instructor's list or create your personalized favorites by adding items from the library, manually entering them, or uploading a file. By adding resources to your favorite list, you ensure that you maintain access to these resources across courses as a Bellevue University-enrolled student.

- Adding Private Notes: You can add personal notes or comments on specific items within the reading list for future reference.

- Marking Items as Done: You can mark items as you complete them to stay organized and keep track of your progress.

Working with Lists

- Exporting a Single Item in a Specific Reference Format (Quick Cite): You can use the Quick Cite tool to create a citation for a single resource by selecting your preferred bibliographic style, such as APA (American Psychological Association).

- Marking Link as Broken / Report Problem with File / Report Missing Link: To report any broken or missing links or issues with files on reading lists, simply submit your report, and the library system will respond to these inquiries.

Additional Information

- Mobile Experience: Leganto is accessible on mobile devices, allowing you to view reading lists, although editing features are limited. Editing features are available on Windows or Mac.
