Mandatory Reads webpart

The Mandatory Reads web part shows the visiting user specific documents flagged by the organisation for them to read:

If there are multiple documents to read you can page between them using the arrows in the top right. Each document can be read without leaving the current page by clicking Read Document to open the document in a lightbox. Once the document has been read users can click to confirm that they have read it and this is recorded in their profile.
