Bulk archive reviews

We have over 1800 pages of Reading List Reviews on our Review dashboard (back to 2017), and to make this more manageable and for our team of staff to be able to quickly identify which list they need to work on, it would be very useful to be able b...

Enable list student numbers to be updated -- in bulk via an uploaded report -- OR an LTI with enrolment systems

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...

Make citation style drop down 'sticky'

Following user feedback, it would be helpful if the citation style drop down could be made sticky - i.e., once they’ve selected it for a list, it should remember and always display the list in that citation style.

Reporting integration with library management systems

As a library staff member, I want to be able to run reports that utilise the Talis Aspire integration with WMS and Reading lists so that I can: Use "inclusion on a reading list" as criteria for generating reports to inform deselection projects (or...

Colour coded bookmarks

It would be useful to be able to colour code bookmarks in a list, as aside from adding in a 'note for students' there's not really any way of emphasizing the importance of a particular bookmark in a list. For instance, I am currently editing a lis...

Referencing styles

It would be super cool if the Talis lists could be formatted according to the referencing style guide that is used by the discipline and had the fields populated appropriately. It would be giving added value to the students who need to use these f...

Create sub-time period for terms / semesters to filter out lower priority lists

We would like to have an additional field for 'Term' added to the metadata for individual reading lists in Talis Aspire. This would enable us to record whether a list was for term 1 or term 2 (or occasionally term 3) or not for any particular term...

Allow recently deleted lists to be retrieved in order to prevent permanent accidental deletions.

When culling reading lists, especially when deciding between two that have been created with the same/similar names, it is easy to delete the wrong one. It would be helpful to have a retrieval feature in which recently deleted lists could be resto...

Short URLs for sharing reading lists

At the moment Talis RL links are very long strings of alphanumerics. A shortened version to share more elegantly would look very nice. E.g. rl.talis.com/Institution/PSYC101 rather than https://rl.talis.com/3/institution/lists/AB01234C-0A2B-3C4D-DD...
