On 'recent changes' include who published the list
At present clicking on 'recent changes' shows the name of the list, the date, what was added. It would be very useful to see the email address of who actually published the list to keep track of activity.

Using the All List Report does allow you to see who last published a reading list. As changes to a list may have been done by library staff updating a link it may confuse if this is in the front end under ‘recent changes’ as to why the list was published by someone other than the academic. We will keep an open watch on this idea though.

Many lists have multiple editors and sometimes it is critical that we know who has edited/added items to a list so we can contact them about the items. At minimum we need to see all the people who have access to edit a list (and who have in fact edited it). Ideally we would see a more detailed history of the specific edits each person has made.

Yes please do display a persons name and the dates of changes please. It would be very useful to see who is editing a list, how and when.

This sounds like a really useful change. It would help us figure out who to contact and we've also had academics get in touch of us because they've seen someone made a change to their list and its freaked them out that they can't see who

Hi Lydia,
We won't be able to display the email address as this is a public page, and that could open up the individual to spam, but we could show the first and last name of the individual.
Thanks,
Chris
