Prompt users for identifier and Source of upload

When users add a new resource to Talis Elevate, we'd like users to be prompted to identify: if the resource is created by them/The university for this course OR If the resource is a published work, allowing them to include a known identifer for th...

Remove 'Create lists' from 'List Publisher' permissions

Currently 'List Publisher' and 'List Creator' have the same permissions in our tenancy. To differentiate them, and as a solution for tenancies wanting staff to be able to edit lists, but not create them, can we please remove 'Create lists' from th...

Enable the metadata of reading list items and digitisations to be synced/linked

Currently, if the metadata in a reading list item is updated, the metadata in the linked ditigisation is not updated too. It would be helpful if the metadata for each were synced, so we do not have to update both separately!

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...

Please automatically tick the Online Resource box when 'Document' is selected as the resource type

Documents are practically always online PDFs. Please make the Online Resource box automatically ticked when 'Document' is selected as the resource type. (The same way webpage is automatically ticked) In the rare instance that a print document is b...

Option to run a Talis digitised extracts report showing the Talis extract request id as well as the DCS id - see screenshot

We'd like to be able to run a report linking the Talis request ID to the corresponding DCS request ID. Currently we can only see this information when we go into each individual request id on the DCS/Talis integration - see screen shot integration...
