Bookmarking screen to include 'Note for library' and 'Note for students' fields

It would be really useful to be able to populate the 'Note for library' field (and indeed, the 'Note for students' field as well) at the point of Bookmarking, like we used to be able to do in the old list view. Our academics naturally assume that ...

Allowing list to be unpublished and publish again

We would like to be able to have faculty be able to publish and unpublish lists, so that they do not need to archive material between semester and create copies. If they know that a list will be active again in two semester, then unpublishing the ...

Creating private lists

We would like to have the ability to make lists completely private. They should not be searchable in the Talis search but should still be found by the creator in the BlackBoard LTI. Faculty would like to be able to keep their lists completely priv...

Add ability to add a comment when accepting a referred digitisation request

Scenario - a digitisation request has been referred as existing copy available. It would be good to add a note stating why you accept the digitisation request (eg. limited concurrent user ebook for large cohort of students, etc.)

'Go to bottom' tab

In the same way that there is a 'go to top' tab, it would be useful to have a 'go to bottom' tab at the top of reading lists. Useful when working on long lists, after publishing, searching from bottom upwards, etc

Amend the VIEW AVAILABILITY button to PRINT AVAILABILITY

I am afraid the new VIEW AVAILABILITY is causing a lot of confusion with our students with multiple reports of broken links associated with print resources where this button is displayed. It’s too similar to the VIEW ONLINE button. I suggest it's ...

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.

Add OCR status of digitisations to the Advanced MIS data

It would be really useful to be able to run a report on digitisation requests where the PDF has not been OCRd. That information doesn't currently exist in Advanced MIS, but Consulting can run a custom report to generate a report.
