Thanks All for your thoughts and knowledge. I think our issue is taking off of the reading list part, which we manage in a reading list manager, and try to manage other parts of the syllabus in a similar way - outside of the same old word document. When implementing the RL manager some of the feedback was that this is only a partial solution - not covering other aspects of the syllabus like class description, plan or requirements - and that those still need to be managed "the old way" without much integration with information systems as it's still a pdf/word document. Maybe the solution is more in the realm of document management or managing semi structured information than library systems.

I'm getting to this conversation a bit late, so it may have already been mentioned but there is the Open Syllabus Project. https://opensyllabusproject.org/ " The Open Syllabus Project (OSP) is an effort to create the first large-scale online database of university course syllabi as a platform for the development of new research, teaching, and administrative tools."

My hobby-horse is data that helps users choose from many books/resources to choose what are the most recommended. I'd love to have syllabus data across many institutions to identify these. So I applaud this idea. Cindy Harper
