Improve the visibility of "Publish" list option
We have noticed quite a number of Instructor created lists remain in Draft in error, as Instructors are not always aware when a list is 'draft' or 'published'. The option to 'publish' is hidden within the Resource List options menu. Instead, it would be useful if the 'publish' option appeared as a visible button and hence be easier to find and also possibly serve as a reminder to publish a list.

The September 2019 release (see also:
https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/395697-leganto/suggestions/34061209-publish-needs-to-be-become-more-visible-and-a-dualadded two options to show/hide the Send to Library and Publish buttons. Unfortunately, once published, the Publish button disappears, rather than toggling to Unpublish/Draft - and as the unpublish option appears in the List menu it is a bit hidden - this is problematic in the sense that it could be clearer and more consistent for Instructors to see a toggle button here which reflects the publication status.
Following feedback on the impact of this 'disappearing publish', we have suggested a follow-on Idea to treat the buttonas a toggle which stays put and so is less confusing to Instructors:https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/395697-leganto/suggestions/39476710-list-publishing-allow-publish-button-from-sept

The "Publish" button really should be made more visible as it is a crucial part of the Leganto process.

I noticed this too. Initially we would want to configure the Reading List Advisor with just two options to reach 100%: associated to a course and published but we are not using because only the first is one of the options.

I also notice that "Publish Reading List" is not included in the Reading List Advisor but seems like it would be a good one to include before a instructor could achieve 100% on their list
