Improve access to Public Notes - allow editing from the Citation edit option
Public Notes (instructor notes on resources visible to list users) are treated oddly in Leganto compared to other reading list systems - that is they are not given equal status as other citation metadata fields in the Citation Edit form.
Public Notes are regularly used by Instructors to annotate or qualify resources; to comment on and direct students as to the quality, purpose, priority, and considerations of using certain resources, or parts of resources.
In that sense the Public Note should be accessible for editing when editing all other item metadata (such as chapter title etc.
Currently the Public note field appears only in the Create citation dialogue, but not in the Edit citation form which is confusing to all list editors, whether academics or Library staff.
Having to click into the full view of an item to add a pubic note lessens the utility of having an instructor public note when editing items. Frequently users will add items and then want to add a comment, or a tag etc, having to click into separate boxes in different parts of the process is inefficient.

Hi, this is completed as far as I can see from the January 2021 release. Can the status be updated and votes released?
Thanks
