Index Start Page and End Page for Book Chapter and Document type citations in Analytics
Start and end pages for article type citations are currently indexed in Analytics, and Article Number of Pages is present/calculated in Analytics. Start Page and End Page for Book Chapter and Document type citations, as well as Total Pages for Document citations are not.
We'd like to share this data with our Copyright Clearance department without using a workaround.

Option to receive email notifications for new or changed citations submitted by instructors
We'd like the option to receive emailed notifications for new or changed citations submitted by instructors. This option should be configurable to allow Library staff to select either immediate notifications for each change or daily digests. Each reading list should have the option for staff to indicate whether if they'd like notifications for that list.

Actualización automática de registros en Listas de Lectura Leganto
Es importante que exista un proceso de actualización entre el registro Padre y la cita agregada en Leganto. Que toda vez que se realice alguna actualización y o cambio en los registros (MARC, holdings o ítems) de Alma que estén referenciados en listas de Lectura de Leganto, estos registros cambios puedan actualizarse automáticamente en las listas de lectura sin necesidad de que se realice manualmente. Actualmente realizamos cambios a nivel de clasificación, cambios en los metadatos y toda vez que los realizamos las listas de lectura se alteran y no son accesibles desde Leganto, por lo que se debe volver…

Add Citation ID as column to Leganto Instructor Usage Events subject area in Analytics
Reports created in the Leganto Instructor Usage Events subject area are not useful unless citations displayed can be easily identified and located in Alma. The best way to achieve this would be to provide Citation ID as a column in this subject area.

Sort list should retain selected value
Currently if you choose a "sort list" option in the Leganto front end (e.g., "list title") then click into a list and then click the "back" button, the sort list option defaults to "My lists on top".
It would be preferable if the sort list value chosen by the user remains.

Order and remove citations in leganto, so users only have the best links at the top of a page.
When an article is available from multiple places, Leganto shows all possible links, which looks messy and can be confusing. It would be preferable to be able to suppress certain links, or re-order them so the 'best' link is at the top. If a link is added manually, Alma automatically overrides it and shows all the links again.

Allow visibility at a section level
Currently we are able to set visibility at a citation level, it would be good if we could set it at a section level. For eg, if my reading list is by week, i would create various sections as weeks with a number of citations under each section. Hence instead of editing the visibility at each citation level, we could edit the visibility at a section level.

Pop up to associate a duplicated with original course or updated course for a different academic year
A newly duplicated reading list remains attached to the same course as the original from which the duplicated reading list was made. We would expect that when a list has been duplicated a prompt box is generated which gives the user the option to associate the reading list with the original course or re-associate it with an updated course for a different academic year.
User story
As an academic I would like to duplicate the current year's reading list which is attached to a course for 2016/17 and create a reading list for 2017/18. Within this list duplication process I…

Add a 'Select all' option to My Collection to allow bulk export/deletion of selected items?
In the "My Collection" list of items, it would be useful if there was a bulk "Select All" option - as well as the individual checkboxes - to allow easier use of the (otherwise greyed out) "Export" and "Delete selected items" options

Allow the citation 'Source' field label to be customised
Could this label be added to the UILegantoLabels code table? We would like to rename it as "Source URL", so that instructors creating citations manually will know that a link can be added here.

Cite It support for Oxford Law Trove
Oxford Law Trove (http://www.oxfordlawtrove.com/) is an essential resource for our Law department. Could this please be added to the list of Cite It supported platforms so that cases and chapters can be added easily?

Add "Chapter Number", "Chapter Author" and "Chapter Title" columns to citation search page on Alma
The citation metadata fields 'Chapter Number', 'Chapter Author', 'Chapter Title' cannot be viewed as columns on the citation search page in Alma (although they are visible if you edit the citation details). These fields contain key information which support our regular workflows, and it would be useful to have them visible at this level.
5 votesIndividual users can customize their citation view in Alma to include chapter title, chapter author, and chapter number.

Get an alert in Task list when a file is uploaded

Book covers shown with citations to be retrieved from several sources
Showing the cover of a book togheter with the citation is a feature well appreciated by both students and instructors.
According to Ex Libris, the two sources for thumbnails in Leganto are Google and Syndetics.
We would like Leganto to be able to retrieve thumbnails from several sources, as is the case with Primo today.

More visible separation between course lists and My lists
When clicking on a permalink to a specific course, the lists associated to this course appear first on the page, followed by one's own list.
A thin line separate the first lists from "My lists" but this line is almost invisible and confuses a lot of users.
This line/separation should be thicker/more visible.

Add a "Refresh" option in the Edit Reading List page in Alma so that changes in the Leganto front-end can be cross-checked more efficiently
When working with Leganto front end, there is "refresh" option at the top of the reading list which makes it easy to update things when editing to make sure the latest detail are visible, particularly seeing changes made in Alma reflected in the leganto list.
However, for Library staff there is no easy way of "refreshing" the Alma view to reflect any changes made in Leganto. This leads to users
i) refreshing the browser ("F5") in the Alma view, which takes you out of the list
ii) Going in and out of the Edit Reading list view to update it…19 votes -
Allow Find lists to enable course-level discovery (and departmental browsing) of lists
The current Find lists (February 2018) page is focused on individual List discovery. It does not support overall course-level discovery very well at all (especially for courses with multiple lists).
A 'structured search' can be done, choosing an academic department but no search term (really this is "browsing"). It returns individual lists of reading lists rather than a list of courses for which contain relevant lists.
Course level discovery would meet student expectations of how they see their courses/modules from the course or programme level, and allow student to see other module reading much more simply by seeing all courses…

Course code visible in reading list overview in Alma
In Alma in Fulfillment > Reading lists, Course codes should be presented in a column along with the list's name, status, owner etc.
This is important information and would save a lot of clicks and back and forth.
Bonus: the course information in this overview could be clickable and redirect to an overview of the lists associated to this course.

Configuration - Disable file upload in reading lists
Institutions should be left the choice to deal with - or not - copyright issues regarding uploaded materials.
The possibility to upload materials to reading lists in Leganto should be a configuration parameter, allowing libraries to switch it on or off.
Uploading files to "My Collection" is of course not problematic.
