Copying sections and bookmarks in bulk into another list

This is something we've wanted for quite some time for a variety of reasons: Able to more quickly deal with requests to take two or more lists and merge them together for a new module e.g. where course revalidation results in two 15 credit modules...

Library notes date/time stamped

It is often impossible to figure out how long a library note has been in a Talis review for - an automatic date/time stamp from whenever a user adds a library note would be really helpful to help solve this problem. As library staff, we do add the...

The ability to copy and paste an existing bookmarked item or section within the same list or in a different list

At the moment, we can only cut and paste an item within the list however, often academics would like to repeat an item in different parts of the list (especially if divided into sections by weeks). There is no way of doing this. If it is in a pers...

Bookmarking screen to include 'Note for library' and 'Note for students' fields

Reporting on list deletions

Currently, it isn't possible either in Aspire itself or in Advanced MIS to report on anything to do with deletion of reading lists. This can cause us problems in certain circumstances, e.g. if our academic colleagues report that a list has gone mi...

Remove the 'Copy list' functionality from list publisher role permissions for academic staff users

We often have academics who will copy existing lists for different (or sometimes unknown) purposes, e.g. to rollover a list, make copy of the list for their own records, to create a list for a different module, which we see as unnecessary and agai...

Warning message for deleting items with active/pending digitisation request

Recently an academic deleted a number of reading list items with digitisations attached, but there was no warning for them (beyond the standard item deletion message), and no indication to us that this had happened until we were checking the link ...

★ Enable individual sections on lists to be hidden/visible only to staff

Many of our users would like the ability to make individual sections 'staff view only' aka 'not visible to students' even when the list is published. Hidden sections could be indicated by the standard 'eye-icon' that most users are familiar with. ...
