Put Add field selector above Part lookup in the bookmarking screen

Stop going back to the start of the list when a bookmark is edited

As I have to often edit bookmarks on very long lists, it would be useful if once a bookmark was edited and saved, the page would return to the point in the list where the bookmark is, rather than sending me back up to the top of the list. This get...

Status label and information suggested wording changes

Regarding the recent wording implemented for status label and informational text under the list’s title, we wanted to propose some changes to the wording to assist with user comprehension: Current: Draft list : Students can’t see this draft. Propo...

When bookmarking books to include ISBNs with 020 |z's in RDA records as well as 020 |a's

Ability to set an institutional level retention period for storage of bookmarks by list editors and creators

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...
Suzanne Bailey over 1 year ago in Reports 4 Will not implement

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...
