New general setting for enabling/disabling multiple lists per course
There's a general Leganto setting for multicourse_lists "Whether to enable multiple courses for reading lists: enabled, disabled."
We would like to add the converse option: enable/disable multi-list courses. By disabling multi-lists per course, only one list could be made for each course via the Leganto interface.
The reason we would like this is to allow instructors to create new lists via Leganto (rather than only by LTI) but not allow them to associate multiple lists per course as this has a negative impact on the embedded LTI view and the way that courses/lists display in the Primo VE full record view.
At the moment our workaround is to prevent any user from creating lists outside of LTI, however this isn't ideal.

Laura, we are having this issue now and it's crushing. We have staff who are clearing the same item 2-3 times because a faculty member indiscriminately cloned their reading list. it would be helpful to have a system setting to prevent this from happening since it's creating a lot of work, particularly for streaming videos.
Best case scenario -> instructors are prevented from creating a second reading list if one already exists. There should be a link to mange all of their lists so they can delete the errant reading list.
