Warning message for deleting items with active/pending digitisation request

Recently an academic deleted a number of reading list items with digitisations attached, but there was no warning for them (beyond the standard item deletion message), and no indication to us that this had happened until we were checking the link from TADC to the reading list and received an error message. It would be good to prevent these list items from being deleted by non admin level users, or for them to at least to receive an additional warning message. If these items are deleted by anyone, it would be good if it generated a notification as TADC is not automatically updated and a manual action needs to be taken.

    Hi,

    This functionality would be really useful.

    We often find ourselves in the situation where bookmarks with a digitisation attached have been deleted from the list and this means spending a lot of time investigating the reasons behind it: since there's no alert system, we realise that this has happened by chance or because a digitisation for a different (or the same) section is requested and it gets automatically rejected.

    We would find it really helpful to have a feature added to the 'delete' option on the bookmarks with digitisations on that stops the bookmark from being deleted, and that either suggests the person to get in contact with the Digitisation Team or allows the person to add a message that gets sent to the Digitisation Team.

    Thank you.

    Serena

    Hey Chantal, we have discussed this with our development team and look to revisit this as part of our Continuous Improvement theme of work later in 2024. Best, Georgia Georgiou (Product Manager)
