Make OpenLibrary searching optional when bookmarking

We are finding, when bookmarking ebooks which are not stored in our library catalogue, that the URL is not being pulled through into the bookmark. This is because, upon finding the title not in our LMS, TARL is searching Open Library and pulling t...

Allow List Publishers to see when a list was last reviewed

List Publishers cannot currently see the Review History of a list - they can only see the "Updated" data, which is often misleading for lecturers as "Updated" includes updates by Library staff, such as adding e-book links or updating editions. Thi...

Currently the student number on lists has to be updated manually and individually. This is timeconsuming and tedious. It would be wonderful if the student numbers on lists could be updated in bulk via an uploaded report, the same way hierarchy nod...

Option to not send 'Review has been completed' email to requester upon completing a review

We find there are many occasions when we have emailed a requestor of a review regarding the list. This is often because we are querying the existence of a list as it is a duplicate copy - a consequence of the 'copy list' function being used inappr...
