Enable independent hiding of different viewers from Alma D
Re: case 06749385
If an institution has multiple viewers configured for Alma D files, then in Leganto both will appear in the Links/availability area. However, if the educator decides that one of the viewers is better suited for their pedagogical requirements (e.g. Universal viewer has specific features for images/3d objects) and tries to hide the Alma Viewer, then both are hidden.
I feel like this is a bug, as both links have separate "hide" links, but hiding one hides both - they are not isolated. Yet, the Mark as Broken links do work independently.
I was asked to submit to…

Possibility to add item to list and to "My collection" from the same screen
When adding an item to a list from the library search, one is presented with these 3 options: List, Clipboard and Suggestions (see screenshot). It would make sense to be able to add the item to one's collection from there as well. Instead, the instructor has to go to "My collection" and search all over again.

Ability to lock section templates to avoid deletion
We have created two section templates (Weekly readings, Essential and background readings) in addition to the Blank default template. Any member of library staff with access to Leganto can delete the templates we created by clicking the x. We would like the ability to lock these templates to avoid accidental deletion by staff.
See idea 'Removal of standard blank template and ability to create a default institution template which cannot be deleted' for a similar suggestion, which was accepted in November 2021.

Add Linkedin Learning resource to the list of supported sites

Vertically align the "view online" button in citations
Hello. We are migrating from Talis to Leganto.
In Talis, our students can see the "View Online" button clearly in the bookmarks. This button is always in the same place as they scroll through the list. See the first attached image. It makes for a consistent UX. Students primarily access their reading list content electronically (including articles, websites, scanned chapters) rather than finding a print copy on the shelves.
In Leganto however, the "View Online" button comes after the print holding locations in the citation. This means that as the user scrolls through the list, the "View Online" location in…

Deactivate the bubble "Add items"
The bubble which pops up when you create a new list and indicates 'Add items' is useless, the 'Add items' button is obvious and does not need a contextual help to be noticed.

Using "Leganto student usage" and noticed that some reading lists/Courses do not appear in this report.
We created a Leganto report with the subject area "Leganto student usage" and noticed that some reading lists do not appear in this report.
We assume that this is because there has not been any student interaction with these lists but there is nothing about this in knowledge center documentation.
We have been having to run separate analytics reports to get all the data we need it.
It would be nice to be able to use the Leganto Student Usage criteria to gather statistics on ALL the reading lists, courses and citations, regardless if they’ve been used or not.14 votesWe will not add all reading lists to the student usage subject area. We have updated the documentation to indicate that the student usage subject area only includes information about courses/lists/citations with usage, and there is an out of the box report that lets you see lists without usage. For the report, go to Shared Folders/Leganto/Reports and see Reading Lists without Usage

Automatically update reading list code in Alma
When a list is 'rolled over', the new 'course' created in Alma has the correct code from the LMS e.g. Canvas. The correct code also appears in the 'reading list' in Leganto. However, in Alma the reading list copies the code from the previous year and adds a (1) to the end.
As an example:
In Alma the course code is: LAWU9CH202223AutumnA
In Leganto the code is LAWU9CH202223AutumnA(2022/23)
but in the Reading List in Alma it says LAWU9CH39_2020(1)(1)It would be much clearer for the reading list in Alma to automatically follow the same…

Citations' Sticker price
In a webinar recently, the trainer talked about being able to add a sticker price to a Leganto citation. This would allow the ability to generate a more accurate report on savings for students. However, currently this has to be manually entered for every citation. I know eventually we will be able to use the API to add this data, and even though that's better, it's not a great way to utilize the system. My idea is this:
1) within Alma, citations have an assigned sticker price;
2) in Leganto, when Instructors pull from these citations, they get that sticker…1 voteThis idea has been closed as part of a cleanup process for ideas older than three years with fewer than 20 votes.

Add a simpler method of updating the number of participants on courses (in bulk)
Although the API and Course loader options exist, the mandatory requirement to have a course ID and Course Name using the full CL template and the unwieldiness of the course loader profile SFTP etc for non technical staff suggests that it would be beneficial to add a simpler method for staff to manually update course participant numbers in bulk (i.e. a simple upload of 2 columns Course ID and Number of participants). Appreciate campus functionality, but for situations where no enrolment loader is possible, but regular updates are possible it would save much manual entry to just be able to…

Review how the Alma course load/reading list rollover job works
We run Leganto Rollover through Alma every year. It has been increasingly more difficult as the job takes longer each year.
Can we please request that rollover process be re-evaluated in general. But specifically in the time it takes to process.
We need the rollover to run in one day if possible. It seems that if rollover uses a large input file it takes a very long time. It's becoming unmanageable for our users as currently one load job is taking over 48 hours.
We'd like it to be simplified in general. Obviously we are all different and each site…

Display whether citation appears on another list
Previously there was a feature that displayed whether a citation existed on another reading list, with some limited functionality, e.g. only displaying if the other list was also on your My Lists page and the citation was an Alma repository item. This feature was taken away by Product Management in January 2022. We have received feedback from instructors that they would like to know when a citation is in use on any other list at the institution, including those not taught by them and where courses are not currently active (but lists are Published). This ensures they are not duplicating…

Hide misleading 'Available in Formats' status in Search Results
When searching Summon, via 'Add Items', it shows eBooks as available just because an ebook exists, and not necessarily because we own it - this can be misleading. It updates once the item is added to the Reading List, but should only show formats that are available or not show any format detail at all until the book has been added. In the example shown, we only own a print copy - but the results make it look like we own the e.

Add a refresh option (or auto-refresh) to My Collection when adding an item to a list
Currently if you try to add an item to a reading list using the Add item/My collection option in the right-hand pane, there is no refresh option (unlike in My Collection proper which does have at least a refresh button. If users add items using cite it or push to my Collection from Primo, the list is not updated automatically and so it appears that the My Collection is not correctly updating.
Adding a refresh would ensure the option shows all added resources as soon as they are available.1 voteThis idea has been closed as part of a cleanup process for ideas older than three years with fewer than 20 votes.

Lock/hide courses
When instructors associate a course to their list, they can choose between all the courses they are an instructor on, including previous years. With very similar names, if not identical, they often choose the wrong one. This is not always easy to discover. It would help if it was possible to lock all courses previous to a chosen year & semester/date so that they don't appear in the list or at least, so that they cannot be associated.

Visualización del tipo de documento en Leganto

Managing data on rightsholders
If customers could maintain records of the rightsholders that they interact with (publishers, etc), then they could use the same kinds of Leganto-based processes for managing copyright permissions for those vendors that they do now when interacting with CCC. This would prevent many customers from needing to maintain an external database for copyright clearance activity that doesn't relate to the CCC.
