1. Make adding a student note more visible in the 'Add & Edit' workflow in the new UI

   In the Classic UI instructors could see a field to add Student notes as soon as they click 'Add and Edit', now when instructors select this the screen opens on an Item details tab that enables them to edit the metadata - an activity that instructors rarely do, and to add a student note they need to click in to the 'Item actions' tab, which is not intuitive to navigate at all.
   We would like the 'Add & Edit' workflow to default to opening on the item actions tab as this is where the activities that are a priority to instructors sit, or to be able to set these defaults ourselves.

2. Allow welcome title/description on Quick Start - New UI

   We think it would be useful to have the option to add a brief welcome title/description to the quick start screen in the New UI.

   Our users access from the LMS and many of our instructors have found this helpful in the classic UI, since they wouldn't otherwise be sure of what Leganto is/that it communicates with the library.

   The New UI quick start screen also seems to look a bit spare without it, and we are afraid new faculty might click on it and click away without interest, without an identifying welcome title.

3. Improve functionality of Courses API

   We use the Courses API to load units from our Learning Management System into Alma/Leganto. We would also like to use it to roll over reading lists, however, it is missing key functionality that we require for our workflows.
   Because of this we have to manually roll over lists. During peak times this is a weekly job and takes up an undue amount of staff time.
   The 2 main improvements we would like to see are:
   -Addition of Write functionality for Tags: We rollover citation tags and this is not supported by the API.
   -Citation Copyright: When trying to create reading lists via the API, the copyright statement is copied, with a resulting status of 'Approved', but it is not re-calculated in the same way as it would be if rolled over in Alma. E.g. the copyright status should be (using our configured rules)Approved Automatically / Extract percent less than 10 – Auto approval

   Please see this blog post for detailed info from our developer: https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/topic/citation-notes-and-tags/

4. Showing "Related Items" to student users

   Please allow to shown the "related Items" to student users. A Professor just told us that he found it should be useful to students but his students are not able to see this part.

6. Custom Analytics 'Reports' within Leganto interface for instructors

   Currently the 'Reports' link (attached) in Leganto just links to an 'out the box' analytics dashboard displaying a range of usage information.

   It would be useful to be able to define a path to our own Analytics dashboard in an Alma code table, e.g. in Fulfilment > Leganto > Customer Settings.

   Our analytics report would be set to receive filters/parameters from Leganto, i.e. reading list codes.

   Academic engagement forms a significant part of the work we do with reading lists, so being able to be flexible and responsive to their needs/wishes in terms of usage of their lists would definitely be a benefit for us.

7. Add course context to notifications in Leganto

   Currently (March 2018) notifications in Leganto don't really provide any course context, or grouping on the basis of course, e.g.
   "- A new item was added to a list
   New item added to the reading list [list name]
   [User] added [title details]"

   which means that for users with many courses (students or instructors), and with several lists for a course, the context of what has really been added to where is quite confusing, or at least not very useful since the viewer has no real sense of what the change aplies to, rather they can only see the fact of a change.

   It would be much more useful to make the course association (if there is one) visible in the notifications - and indeed to offer a link to the course level), as well as potentially filtering/ordering by course.
   In the VLE/CMS and in general academic departmental communications students and instructors tend to receive updates with the course context first and foremost in the communication.
