When adding citations to a list via search, prioritize latest edition and owned item first
Sometimes instructors perform a citation search in Leganto and just add the first result that comes up in the search results; often this is actually a book review or other format that isn't logical for reserves. Additionally, most instructors are searching and expecting the latest edition to appear first in the list. Other faculty from certain departments want to choose a particular edition, and so need edition information prominently surfaced in the search result.
This results in processing delays as staff must check with instructors to clarify what items they really intended to place on reserve.
One possible solution may be to offer an option for faculty to specially indicate that the submitted citation must be filled as specified (format/edition). Something could indicate that by default, any available edition can be substituted for the one added to the list as a result of search.

We are closing this idea. Leganto uses the same ranking as Primo or Summon, and we do not plan to develop an option to rank citations differently for Leganto purposes.

Would like to see a feature that recommended latest edition (and other editions) as an option - both during Leganto search, and for items added to list (visible when list being reviewed)

Books should definitely be prioritised over book reviews! But otherwise owned editions should be prioritised over non-owned, and full text available over non-full text available.
We'd then prefer to prioritise full-text over physical, but other libraries may have a different preference so this should perhaps be configurable.

This details section seems to be a good addition, but it would still be important that the system automatically prefers latest edition and owned item in the search results!

Hi Kara,
November release includes feature where instructor must fill in some details (upon configuration) about the citation added.
Thanks,
