Allow quick linking back to reading list from citations view
From citations view, if we need to access the associated reading list in order to make any changes, we must follow a very complicated path to get back to said reading list. This path is very click-intensive.
Preferred functionality would be for the Reading list entry in each citation (in Citations view) to be a hyperlink which resolves directly back to said reading list for quicker processing.

Glad to see this was listed as planned in July, as it is a strange gap in workflows from citations and from the task list links it's such a shame not to be able to link through to Leganto front end.

Further to my last comment, The March 2019 release change, moving some Reading List Tasks to be Citation level Tasks, makes this enhancement all the more urgent, as some tasks inevitably require users to get to the Leganto view, AND/ OR the Reading list in Alma.
The link between Item and its lists should be more direct otherwise it loses some of the value of being able to handle the lowest level of detail in bulk/ avoid repeated checking of ultimately the same thing (in Leganto). More flexible workflows and list checking would be enabled by adding list level links both to Alma (for non-Leganto users too) and to Leganto list view itself.

With the enhancements to Edit Citations and Citations view, and citations being in Persistent Search in Alma it is becoming more of a problem to NOT be able (easily) to get from an item to the list to which is belongs. This is an essential part of a Unified Resource Management system.
