Pin the yellow "Unpublished Changes" bar so it is visible when scrolling down list

The yellow "Unpublished changes!" warning bar is a great idea in theory, but when list editors scroll down a long list, it quickly disappears from view. We still get huge numbers of lists inadvertently left by academics with unpublished changes (w...

Change 'Edit list details' to 'Edit list privacy' only

Only system administrators/library staff should be able to change list settings such as the time periods, titles, and licences. We find the description box is rarely used. Academics tend to change the time periods to 'rollover' their list, without...

Change the save buttons in the Assign List Owner window.

When a user is assigned as the 'List Owner' of the list, if the Save button is clicked (instead of the Save with List Publisher role), the user is granted ownership without editor permissions. This is not particularly obvious and causing frustrati...

Remove the new status feature on Lists and just change the wording of the existing Publish bar instead

We have the ongoing problem of lecturers using expired lists, instead of the lists rolled over for their course. As the new green "PUBLISHED: This lists is live , students can see latest changes " status label is appearing on all published lists, ...

Undo button

When a section/resource/paragraph has been deleted, it would be useful to have the option to bring it back, even if this is available for say, 30 seconds; could be particularly useful for new list editors.

Make it an option for 'Quick Add' function to only search 'My bookmarks'

Currently our 'Quick Add' enables users to add resources by searching by title, author, or ISBN-13, as well as My Bookmarks/recently added. We do not encourage our users to add new resources this way as they often struggle to find exactly what the...

Editing actions from search screen

It would be great to be able to make cut n paste/move actions from within the search screen. Currently, when you search you can't then cut and paste the bookmark without leaving the search and returning to the very long list in which you couldn't ...

Having a check box to tick, to clarify to students that the item is not yet available/purchased

It would be good to have a simple check box to tick, so that it is then clear to students that the item is not yet in the Library. This would be less time-consuming than having to manually check and change each item ourselves. Please could we sugg...

student view for unpublished lists

Some of our teachers would like to be able to see what their lists look like before they publish them, so that they only present students with the list in its finished form, as they intended it. It would be useful if the Student View option was av...
