Prevent users from publishing blank lists

We sometimes have list owners who publish entirely blank reading list, as in, no resources, sections, paragraphs, etc. We don't mind if we get the occasional list which is blank besides a message reading "coming soon!" or similar, because at least...

Change 'Edit list details' to 'Edit list privacy' only

Only system administrators/library staff should be able to change list settings such as the time periods, titles, and licences. We find the description box is rarely used. Academics tend to change the time periods to 'rollover' their list, without...

Change the save buttons in the Assign List Owner window.

When a user is assigned as the 'List Owner' of the list, if the Save button is clicked (instead of the Save with List Publisher role), the user is granted ownership without editor permissions. This is not particularly obvious and causing frustrati...

Undo button

Having a check box to tick, to clarify to students that the item is not yet available/purchased

It would be good to have a simple check box to tick, so that it is then clear to students that the item is not yet in the Library. This would be less time-consuming than having to manually check and change each item ourselves. Please could we sugg...

student view for unpublished lists

Some of our teachers would like to be able to see what their lists look like before they publish them, so that they only present students with the list in its finished form, as they intended it. It would be useful if the Student View option was av...

Make Sections move through drag and drop function - just like items

For longer lists, moving a section can be difficult, although more advanced users of the system may have work arounds (create a new section and drag and drop the items) or at least know that the option to move a section is there, others may not. H...

Add a column in the All items download that identifies if it is a resource or paragragh

We do not work from the reviews function of TALIS as we don't have a dedicated person/team within the library. We work from an All items download list to identify training issues with list creators, for tidy up projects or for lists of potential p...
