Add 'Selected Pages' as a 'Resource Type' in reading list and change Page fields for 'From-To' to just 'Pages'ages

Enable list student numbers to be updated in bulk via an uploaded Report

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...

Add Report on items flagged with the new editions alert

A cross-tenancy report detailing all items flagged with the new editions alert status would be incredibly useful to us as part of our acquisitions process. We currently have to go in to each individual talis review in order to find this informatio...

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.

Being able to easily see all added List Publishers

Would be useful to be able to easily see all current list publishers attached to a list, to prevent us from adding a current publisher again when a new request comes in (staff sometimes request to have their full team added, and some may already h...

Improve bookmarking to capture all metadata relevant for the Resource Type

Currently, when one of our list owners bookmarks a resource from our library discovery platform (Ex Libris Primo VE) or from a publisher site, not all of the relevant fields are populated in the resource record in Talis Aspire. For example, when j...

Separate 'Report Broken link' button for online resources

The 'Report broken link' option for students is buried in the item menu, and is often hard for them to find. One of the ways we promote TA to academics is the ability for us to fix links without their intervention, but this requires them to educat...
