  1. Have notification for "New comment was added to library discussion for item" link to the item in question

    In the Leganto notification system, the notification for "A new item was added to a list" provides links to both the relevant reading list and item, but the notification for "New comment was added to library discussion for item" only points to the list, not to the specific item that was commented on. Our instructors would appreciate being able to navigate directly to the relevant item/citation.

  2. Display tags and student notes in same screen as item availability when viewing full citation details

    If you navigate to a reading list citation via Alma using ‘View in Leganto’, this opens the citation in the full screen, and you cannot see tags or notes unless you click ‘Item Actions’. If you open the citation by clicking ‘full details’ when scrolling through Leganto in list view, the same is true that you need to click ‘Item Actions’ to see this information, but the citation does not open in full screen and the list view is still present on the left with some tagging/context visible, which mitigates it somewhat but is still not great.

    I would love…

  3. NUI Include publication year with citation information

    Including the publication year in the citation information on the landing page would enable librarians and students to identify the latest edition.

    The publication year is currently visible in the expanded view, when you click on the citation.

  4. Additional brief citation information for instructors - New UI

    Can the brief citation view for Instructors in the new Leganto UI be made the same as the student view, where all citation details are visible? Currently if there are multiple editions of the same book, or material with very similar titles it is very hard to quickly tell them apart as only the title is visible. If a new instructor has to review an existing reading list, it takes them much more time in the new UI as they have to open each citation to see complete details.

    This also affects processing staff who work in Leganto, who are…

  5. Enhance Browzine integration to add journal covers as citation thumbnails

    The Leganto Browzine integration currently only supports the full text linking functionality. One of the other features of Browzine is the ability to display journal covers. In Leganto we frequently find that journal covers are not available from the out of the box service and the users see a generic thumbnail image instead. This reduces the visual appeal of Leganto.

    This idea is to enhance the current Browzine integration to retrieve journal covers when they are not available from the Leganto out of the box service. By enhancing the Browzine integration we will see more journal covers for article and…

  6. Adding tags from Cite it

    Currently there is no way to add tags at the same time as you create a citation from Cite it. You have to first add the citation to the list, then open the list, find the citation and finally add tags. This is a cumbersome and inefficient process that could be improved.

    Cite it has other features that allow you to add public notes, due dates and creative commons licenses to your citations. These features are not as widely used as tags, but they are available at the time of creating a citation. Having the ability to add tags at…

  7. Change visibility of the availability of physical copies for instructors

    New interface: The visibility of the availability of physical copies is different according to the role of the user. Surprisingly, the visibility of the instructor or librarian role is less complete than the visibility of the guest or student role.
    Also, when you are librarian or instructor, you are unavailable to see easily the availability of physical items. You see the text "Physical item" but this is not a link, and you have to do a lot of non-intuitive clicks to finish how many items we have or where they are. It is possible that there is no physical element…

  8. Suggest Replacement feature - display availability and request options for instructor

    There should be an easy way for an instructor to place a hold request (for physical – if allowed by the institution) or access full-text (for ebooks) on the suggested replacement for a citation. Currently, when there is a replacement suggestion, the instructor can only see the title metadata and approve or decline the suggestion. There’s no easy way for the instructor to get access to the suggested item. This is important when the instructor hasn’t yet seen the new edition and needs to review the content before finalising their reading list.

  9. Configure default status for Library Physical Digitization requests

    When working with citations, we would like the ability to configure the default status when a Library Physical Digitization request has been submitted.

    Parameters available via the Course Reserves Automatic Statuses mapping table allow default statuses to be assigned for resource sharing requests and purchasing requests. Could an additional parameter be added for Library Physical Digitization requests?

  10. 'No List Expected' to show in Leganto

    Really like the 'No list expected' feature in ALMA, but it would be even better if it reflected in Leganto as well for the user.

    So if this is checked in ALMA, in Leganto it would state something like 'There is no Reading List for the course by design' to differentiate from ones where the List is still in 'Draft' or hasn't been created / has been un-associated or deleted (possibly by accident).

  11. Search field to look up lists to copy sections to

    When copying a section, one can choose which reading list the section will be copied to. This solution makes difficult for staff enrolled on a large number of lists, as the correct list to move the section to can then fall off the drop down menu. Instead of a dropdown menu we would like a search field so that staff can look up the list instead, the same way one can look up courses when associating a list to a course.

  12. Add "keep both" option for citation replacement (new edition) feature

    The new feature (April 2023) could be used for suggesting alternative titles not just newer editions.

    There use cases where the instructor wants to retain the current item and the suggested item.

    A "keep both" button that inserts the suggested item into the list immediately after the current item would enhance this new feature.

  13. Change the message students see when clicking an LTI link if a course deliberately has no reading list

    When students click an LTI link for a course with no reading list associated, they currently see a message saying that there is no reading list for the module. This message also displays even when the course has been marked as deliberately having no reading list.

    This means students do not know whether there is deliberately no reading list, or whether one should be expected, and they have to contact their tutor or the Library to find out, causing needless confusion.

    We would like the text of the message to be different if there is deliberately no reading list, so…

  14. Secure access to restricted image files via the thumbnail

    Guest users are able to access restricted image files via the thumbnail.

    When the institution has specifically restricted access to files, then guest users should not be able to view or download the file.

    However, for images, Leganto creates a thumbnail which is visible to guests. Worse than this, if the user right clicks the thumbnail they can then view or save the image file.

    This is a breach of the security configuration and may infringe copyright or permissions for use of the image.

    We would expect that for guests (or signed-in users who are restricted (eg. not a student…

  15. Move multiple citations to another section on a reading list

    When editing/updating reading lists, it would be useful to be able to move multiple items to another section of a reading list in bulk, for example by updating the 'Edit Multiple Items' function to include a move action, alongside a dropdown for the user to be able to select which section to move the citations to.

  16. Option to link Leganto citation metadata to Alma/Primo bibliographic data

    Bibliographic metadata for books is often improved in Alma/Primo after a citation has been created in Leganto. We would like the option to link the citation metadata from Alma/Primo so that when Alma/Primo metadata is updated, the Leganto citation metadata would be updated also.

  17. Language as part of a citation - duplicate

    This is a duplicate of an existing Idea. The original Idea has status Accepted, but Ex Libris will not implement this without some more traction of the idea. You can't vote for an Idea with status Accepted, thus a duplicate.


    We would like that the language of the document to be part of the citations. In a non-english speaking country as Norway there are political interest to see how much of the reading are in Norwegian and how much that are in other languages.

    Language is a part of the records in Alma, and also for the records that are…

  18. Email notification function for mark as broken

    I'm writing about Leganto's "mark as broken" feature.

  19. Support Local Resource Types in Library Search faceting

    Provide the option to include Local Resource Types in Leganto’s Library Search facets.

    We have created Alma Local Resource Types for use in Primo. However, those resource types are not reflected in Leganto’s Library Search resource type facets. As a result users have no way to limit by those local resource types.

    For example, we have created a local resource type printbook, and all remaining ebook items that don’t fit the local printbook criteria remain in the default book facet. Leganto users can limit by the default “Book” resource type which actually contains our ebooks, but cannot limit…

  20. Link prioritization in Leganto

    Some aggregators, e.g. EBSCO, don't make preprints available as quickly as publishers, e.g. Wiley. But because the preprints do fall in our coverage range, the aggregator links appear and look like broken links. In discovery, we can use Link Prioritization to place the publisher links above the aggregator links. Direct linking, then, doesn't point to "broken" links.
    Can Leganto set up Link Prioritization too? So that we can place the functional links (publisher) above broken links (aggregator).
