I believe the Moodle system isn't used to restrict access to resources 
per se, as many lecturers put their teaching materials on their websites 
as well/instead. Moodle allows tutors to (amongst other features) keep 
track of which students are enlisted to their courses, perform online 
quizes and share resources with students. It will then highlight what 
the new resources are (personally for each student) and which are useful 
for a particular section of the course.
There's no univ rule that says that teachers should not share their 
resources, it's just that Moodle is usually a convenience.
