This is one of the features that we will be looking to bring across into the New List Edit so the behaviour is the same as the ‘Classic’ editing experience.

Just wanted to add some more evidence on this. Doing some pre-semester tidying today, I contacted 8 of my lecturers who had Unpublished Changes on reading lists for modules coming up this semester. Without exception, they all replied to say sorry, they had forgotten/hadn't realised they hadn't published (no-one was still working on a list). So none of them had been alerted by the Unpublished Changes banner, probably because it was out of their view after adding items further down the list. Given there have been a lot of votes for this idea, any chance of an update?

Very much agree with Catherine's comment of 30th January about the wording of the Unpublished Changes banner for those who have Force Review on. I hadn't noticed that, as I have Acquisitions role myself so don't see the same wording! Should definitely be changed as Catherine suggests, to make it clearer that the list will NOT be reviewed until the academic hits Publish.

Question: what would you do where you have a single bookmark covering both print and e-book availability? (This is what we do, to avoid making lists look twice as long as they really are - we advise lecturers to bookmark the print version and then, provided we also have an e-book, tick the Online Resource button in the bookmark. Open URL then does the rest.) Would you envisage having two buttons on such items? Or would you only want a VIEW PRINT button on print-only items, on the grounds that students will prefer online if it is available?

I can see how this may increasingly be an issue. I'd support the button saying "VIEW PRINT COPIES" or "VIEW PRINT", as "availability" can cover both print and online.

We have put a lot of work into support resources for new academic Aspire users such as our mini-guides and video tutorials. When we invite new staff to be list publishers, we want to direct them to these, as well as encouraging them to contact the Library for support, and give them some motivation to engage with creating and updating reading lists. The best place to start doing this would be the List Publisher invitation email, but currently we can only work round this by copying and pasting text from a shared document - laborious and people don't always remember. We'd really like to be able to customise this default invitation text at tenancy level.

We've been told for years that the ability to set citation display styles in New List View was "coming" and our academics are desperate for it - would really like it bumped up the development queue!

This is not currently in our near term development focus so it has been moved to the longer term backlog while we focus on items in the development focus.
Ideas may be graduated from the backlog as we get through the ones that are planned.

We have begun work on the anonymising of user profiles. If you have anyone that raises this under GDPR before this work is released then please do raise a support ticket with the details.

Being able to automate this would be really useful - we run it weekly and it doesn't seem like a particularly good use of a member of staff's time to have to log in and press buttons for a completely routine process, especially when that also involves making sure it is covered if that person is away etc.

Thank you for all the feedback relating to the sections and the difficulties around defining them. We will be making some changes to these to make them more distinct. We will update as these become available.

Even worse, we get lots of accidentally-nested sections where because of the lack of contrast, lecturers don't realise that they've made Week 7 a subsection of Week 6 which is a subsection of Week 5 etc... all the way back to Week 1! Takes *forever* to unpick!

With the changes to the list edit screens we are keen to review this and make it possible to undo some actions within the list.

I think this would be particularly useful given the very limited colour contrast between sections and background in New List View/Edit (very subtle shades of grey) which means my academics are often not doing things to the level of the list that they think they are working in. It's very easy to fail to distinguish between deleting an item and deleting a whole section. An alternative would be to have different confirmation messages depending on what was being deleted, eg "Do you really want to delete this WHOLE SECTION and all the items within it from your list?"

The argument I can see against this would be that on a very long list, in particular, just relying on seeing the NEW flag against an item might make it too difficult to spot which were new items (we only check new items in review generally, not the whole list, particularly at peak times). Would this need to be combined with a filter which made it possible to select only NEW items to show on the Review screen?
I think this is essentially the same as idea "Pin "Unpublished changes!" message to top of New Edit screen" from November 2019, maybe these could be combined?
