Your module handbook will list all the material you need to read for your module. Usually it will be divided by week and also into "essential" and "secondary" readings. Finding the material can be a bit confusing as it isn't all going to be in the same place.
The best starting point is Canvas - you can find out more about it here. Many of your readings will be found here.
Not everything you need will be on Canvas - you will also find material in the library or electronically using the library catalogue. The library supplies both print and electronic resources. To find out how to find resources in the library please check the Finding Books, Finding Journal Articles and Finding Book Chapters pages.
