Resource type list - allow customisation

We would like to add 'Databases" to the resource type list. I have seen other users would like to add other resources types. Why not allow users to add resource types to the list that work for their organisation?

Ebook cover images

We find the book cover images useful for new users in making the lists more attractive to the eye. These work fine when we are including physical books on the list, but as we are increasingly moving to an e-first policy the ISBN no longer has a co...

When checking over reading lists at the start of the year, one thing we often want to check is whether all the Essential reading on a given list is available online. At the moment, we can't easily do this using the Filters option, as both the Impo...
