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...

New resource type: book portions; combine two tabs for journal articles when bookmarking

We have feedback from an academic: I have spent more than 1 hour to try to add a book portion (NOT a whole chapter) and still could not add it. So, we would like to see an option to add book portion (as a new resource type) with multiple page rang...

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.

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...

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...

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...

option to change author to editor field without having to re-enter the information

Book editors are sometimes entered as authors so it would be great if you could somehow switch them to the editor without deleting the author and re-entering the information into an editor field. this would save time if there were a lot of correct...

System wide alert or custom notification

We would like the ability to apply a system wide alert or custom message across the reading list system for notification of downtime and other important user-facing communications. Ideally this message would flow via the LTI into our Learning Mana...
