Better interoperability – add a new symbol in Alma as an indication when an attachment is hidden in Leganto
We use the Leganto citation ‘Hide link’ feature to hide attachments from the Student view.
As UNSW process reading lists in Alma, it will be helpful if there is a symbol to indicate the attachment is hidden so we don’t have to select the "View in Leganto" for each citation to check whether the attachment is hidden or not.
We manually add a tag to show if an attachment is hidden, but it is not practical.
It will be even better if the ‘Hide link’ option is available in Alma, in addition to Leganto.
Thank you.

UNSW is moving onto the new UI shortly and would like to raise this interoperability issue once again. We hope that other libraries see the benefit of this idea and can add their votes for support
When processing citations in Alma, librarians cannot tell if a file is hidden or not unless they select “View in Leganto,” every time a citation contains a file. This is an ineffective and inefficient way of Leganto processing citations.
UNSW Library want to propose an enhancement that shows a clear indication within Alma that an uploaded file has been hidden.By having this visible indication within Alma will assist the librarian to verify file’s status and complete the citation processing within one interface as the systems design intended.
If this enhancement is endorsed, we would also like the indicator to remain even after reading list rollover.

This is the only functionality that we have to go via Leganto to work on when processing a list - all a bit annoying

Yes I believe this proposed idea will assist with our workload processing
