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...

Change 'Edit list details' to 'Edit list privacy' only

Only system administrators/library staff should be able to change list settings such as the time periods, titles, and licences. We find the description box is rarely used. Academics tend to change the time periods to 'rollover' their list, without...

Change the save buttons in the Assign List Owner window.

When a user is assigned as the 'List Owner' of the list, if the Save button is clicked (instead of the Save with List Publisher role), the user is granted ownership without editor permissions. This is not particularly obvious and causing frustrati...

Enable preset customisation of List Publisher invitation text at tenancy level

We'd like to be able to pre-customise our List Publisher invitation text at tenancy level, instead of each time an invitation is sent. We have a standard text we send to new academics with their invitation, but each time Library staff send an invi...

Enable the metadata of reading list items and digitisations to be synced/linked

Increase compatibility with Law resources

Currently appropriate metadata fields and citiation styles cannot be selected eg. NZLSG As a workaround, we put whole Law citation into the Title field. It would be helpful if there was increased compatibility with Law resources.

Address a focus or scrolling issue when using keyboard navigation

Using the arrow and other quick navigation keys with a screen reader such as JAWS for Windows to navigate a reading list which is organised by weeks or topics. The content seems to auto-scroll and unexpectedly change screen reader focus. When I re...
