Back-up copies of previous versions of lists

A new member of academic staff recently deleted several sections and numerous resources from two reading lists by accident. There is currently no way of reverting to the previous versions of these lists, as Talis does not keep any back-ups. We can...

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.

Remove the Gravatar integration from the user profile options

I believe that the Gravatar integration is not widely used and is a historic integration that didn't appeal to the masses. We have added instructions to our user information documentation about it but would rather we didn't have to if no one uses ...

Currently when the title of a book is clicked, the live library availability of the item is displayed. For print books, it shows how many copies are available, but for eBooks it does not specify how many users are available. It would be very usefu...

Bulk delete lists

We should be able to bulk delete lits. Our archived lists are mounting up and after a few more years there will be even more!

'View as a list owner' functionality

Often, when we are introducing new academic staff to Talis Aspire or running refresher sessions for list owners just before the start of a semester, our colleagues point out that the menus they see in the system are not the same as those on screen...

Hi, it would be great if we could get 'Library notes' and all url fields in public.f_rl_items.

It would be useful for La Trobe as we still rely on manually exporting reports to identify print items via Power Bi. Adding these columns to the Advanced MIS could speed up our process. Thanks.

Make OpenLibrary searching optional when bookmarking

We are finding, when bookmarking ebooks which are not stored in our library catalogue, that the URL is not being pulled through into the bookmark. This is because, upon finding the title not in our LMS, TARL is searching Open Library and pulling t...

Ability to collapse sections on a list

We have had a request from an academic with a large list for the ability to set the sections on their list to be collapsed by default. This will allow the user to quickly scroll to the relevant section then open it to see their readings. (Also, ca...

Option to not send 'Review has been completed' email to requester upon completing a review

We find there are many occasions when we have emailed a requestor of a review regarding the list. This is often because we are querying the existence of a list as it is a duplicate copy - a consequence of the 'copy list' function being used inappr...
