Your student or staff card is also your Library card.

If you don't have a University ID card see Students Services information on Student ID Cards.

The SCU Borrow app allows SCU students and staff to borrow physical books using their smartphone camera while at the Lismore, Gold Coast, or Coffs Harbour libraries.

• Download the App.  Search for “SCU Borrow” in the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). Install the app on your smartphone. Enable location services if prompted.
• Log In. Open the app and press ‘Start’. Log in using your SCU username and password. Press 'Start'
• Borrow Books. Tap the ‘+’ button to begin borrowing. Use your phone’s camera to scan the barcode on each book (usually on the front cover or inside). Tap the ‘+’ button again to add more items.
• Finish and Confirm. Once all items are scanned, press the ‘Finish’ button. A loan receipt will be sent to your SCU email. Press 'close'

Request an item that is either on loan or available at a Southern Cross campus Library for “click and collect’ from your campus library or to be mailed to your home address:

• Sign in. You must be signed in to make a request
• Click on Availability information (e.g. "Available at Coffs Harbour...")
• Below the locations information choose 'Request item'

The following databases are also useful.

The NHMRC and ARC have both mandated that research resulting from NHMRC or ARC funding is to be made available on Open Access via the institutional repository, for SCU that is Cross Connect.

The mandates are based on the premise that:

The Australian Government makes a major investment in research to support its essential role in improving the wellbeing of our society. To maximise the benefits from research, publications resulting from research activities must be disseminated as broadly as possible to allow access by other researchers and the wider community.

ARC Open Access Policy Version 2021.1

Any Research Output Published in respect of ARC Funded Research must be made Openly Accessible within a twelve (12) month period from the Publication Date and must include acknowledgement of ARC funding and the ARC Project ID.

• Applies to outputs from funding granted after 1 January 2013
• Applies to books, book chapters and journal articles.

Read the ARC Open Access policy

From 1 July 2012 NHMRC have mandated:

...any publications arising from an NHMRC supported research project must be deposited into an open access institutional repository within a twelve month period from the date of publication.

• Applies retrospectively
• Publication must include the Grant ID number
• Relates to anything published after 1 July 2012 as a result of an NHMRC grant no matter how old the grant
• Applies to peer-reviewed journal articles only

Read the NHMRC Open Access policy.

APCs are charged by Open Access publishers to cover the costs of publishing instead of raising revenue from subscriptions

The APC will vary usually depending on the impact factor of the journal.

In some cases, this APC may be covered by the Library's Open Access agreements.

The Accepted Manuscript, or post-print, is the final version of your manuscript before publisher markup and after any reviewers comments have been addressed. It is word-for-word identical to the published version.

Some commercial publishers apply an embargo to the Accepted Manuscript.

This will usually be outlined in your author agreement. The Accepted Manuscript can be added to Cross Connect and your SCU Profile where the system will apply an embargo period as per the publisher's requirement.

We are happy to help you interpret your publisher agreement. Email crossconnect@scu.edu.au if you have an enquiry.

To comply with the ARC and NHMRC mandates the Accepted Manuscript must be submitted to Cross Connect and made available on Open Access within 12 months of publishing. Both mandates state that if you are unable to supply an Open Access version of your paper then the metadata i.e. the citation details, must at least must be included in the Institutional Repository.

Different publishers apply different copyright restrictions on their Accepted Manuscripts, Library Systems staff will check the copyright for you and make your Accepted Manuscript available wherever possible.

The Post Print, or Accepted Manuscript, is the final version of your manuscript before publisher markup and after any changes by reviewers. Open policy finder (formerly Sherpa Romeo) provide a list of Publishers allowing the deposition of their published version/PDF in Institutional Repositories.

You can provide Library Systems staff with the Accepted Manuscript by:

• Attach it to your Research Publications submission to DVCR
• Attach it to the publication on your SCU Profile
• Emailing crossconnect@scu.edu.au

You can ensure your rights to post an Accepted Manuscript, if not already permitted, by requesting an addendum to your Author/Publisher agreement. The NHMRC has recommended the following wording to be added to the contract you sign with your publisher;

The Author has the right to archive their version of the article (Word document) after peer-review, with revisions having been made, on their institutional website and their personal website, provided in all cases a link to the journal article on the Publisher web-site is included.

If you wish to have a list rolled over from a previous term, contact the myReadings team.

Note: The list will be rolled over from the last time this unit had a published myReadings list.

If any changes are needed, please give a detailed explanation of the changes requested (an annotated list of what to add or remove).

Please submit all tables of contents or bibliographies for new lists to myreadings@scu.edu.au prior to the deadline.

The Library will:

• check the copyright status of all items
• create the reading lists in myReadings and notify you when the list is complete
• ask for a digitised file for any items not held in the Library if required.

If you wish to have a list rolled over from a previous term, contact the myReadings team.

Note: The list will be rolled over from the last time this unit had a published myReadings list. If any changes are needed, please give a detailed explanation of the changes.

Deadline for submission is the end of Week 4 of the preceding Term.
Email your list to myreadings@scu.edu.au.

2026 deadlines* (week 4 of the previous term):

• Summer Term - 21 November 2025
• Term 1 - 6 February 2026
• Term 2 - 2 April 2026
• Term 3 - 29 May 2026
• Term 4 - 31 July 2026
• Term 5 - 25 September 2026

* You can still submit lists after the deadlines, but we cannot guarantee that they will be available in time for the start of teaching.

Before teaching staff can start using myReadings, there are a few simple steps to follow:

• Contact the myReadings team to arrange training.
• After training, the myReadings team can give you access to the list.
• Accept the email invitation to register as a list publisher.
• If you haven't already done so, set up your profile and login.
• Install the 'bookmarklet' tool to your browser. (See tutorials on Bookmarking and 'My Bookmarks')
• Start collecting bookmarks for books, journal articles, websites, etc - whatever you wish to provide in a list for your students.

myReadings provides students with:

• links directly to key readings, allowing students to spend more time reading items on their lists, rather than searching for them,
• easily identified 'prescribed' readings and optional lecturers' notes,
• the ability to add their own notes to myReadings items, enhancing engagement.

myReadings lists can be customised to suit your needs.

• Create myReadings lists using bookmarks: list creation is dynamic and a variety of resources can be added to a list, including books, ebooks, book chapters, journal articles and webpages.
• Save time and effort: items saved as bookmarks can be used in multiple lists and lists are simple to update.
• Import reading lists via an RIS file: import your readings from EndNote, Mendeley, Zotero or other reference management tools.
• Structure lists in whatever way best suits the unit content: lists can be organised by week, topic, module or resource type.
• Gather valuable data: if you are given publisher or owner access, you can see the analytics dashboard for each of your reading lists. The dashboard shows the number of visits to a list and how many times links to resources have been clicked. Monitor which items on the list are under-used and which are used most often.

Copyright legislation restricts the amount that SCU Library can make available online to 10% or one chapter of a text. MyReadings keeps track of copyrighted material and raises alerts when the University is at risk of breaching copyright.  For more information on copyright, see SCU's Copyright site.

The Assessment, Teaching and Learning Procedure specifies how learning resources best contribute to the Southern Cross Model for student engagement in a unit. This includes the provision that learning resources will not exceed 20 items per unit within a myReadings list and only consist of prescribed learning resources.

Please contact the myReadings team directly by email if you have any questions regarding materials on myReadings.
