'Go to bottom' tab

Ability to 'cut & paste' sections of a reading list into another reading list. I work on multiple programmes where my subject is one of several within a module, each of which has its own, specific reading list associated. With the current set-up, this means that my texts need to be painstakingly added to each. functionality that enables you to lift whole sections (or a link to all/part of another reading list) would save huge amounts of time each year.

Enable a 'Key Theorist' label to be added to resources that are old but foundational

Create a 'List Health' function in the list 'Analytics' dashboard

In the list 'Analytics' dashboard there is 'Resource health' function. It would be useful if there was also a 'List health' function, indicating: How long since any resources have been added or removed from the list (not just when the list was las...

★ 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. ...
