Issue with OA status on closed asset with open manuscript
There seems to be no way to add an open access manuscript to an asset for a work whose published version is closed without listing the entire asset as OA.
This is a major issue because a central use case for Esploro is to provide openly accessible manuscript versions of closed works. This problem means that we currently cannot add an open manuscript to a non-OA asset (i.e. journal article) without marking the entire asset as OA, which is incorrect and misleading.
There is a workaround, but fixing this would be extremely helpful in the long run as we scale…

Allow repository staff to send canned responses

pop-up notification when communicating with researchers about an asset
When communicating with researchers about an asset, staff members must open the asset record, navigate to the communication tab, enter their message, and click "Send." However, their message is not actually sent to the researcher until the asset record is saved. This is not particularly intuitive, especially because the message appears as a new line in the communication history with the date sent and name of recipient. In order to make this step clearer, we recommend adding a hint or pop-up notification letting staff know the asset record must be saved in order for the message to be sent.
