Merge/link duplicate bookmarks in the system

Often the same resources are bookmarked by many different users, but with the metadata details varying slightly for each. It can be time-consuming to correct each occurence/variation. It would be very helpful if duplicate bookmarks could be merged...

Enable the possibility for updating the hierarchy via API

We think it would be beneficial to the community to have the ability to add and update the hierarchy in Talis via API. Allowing API calls to add/update the hierarchy would allow us to more closely integrate Talis with Central IT Systems, and allow...

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...

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...
