Pin the yellow "Unpublished Changes" bar so it is visible when scrolling down list

The yellow "Unpublished changes!"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 We still get huge numbers of lists inadvertently left by academics with unpublished changes (w...

Note For Library - see reporter + get alert when note has been added to reading list

We don't currently assign list owners to reading lists, so can't see who has added a Note for Library. It would also be helpful to have (optional) ability to turn on functionality to send alert when Note to Library has been added.

Adding custom images to list items

There are many items in lists that are not just books. There is currently no way of adding an image to a list item. These items all look very unintuitive and bland without an image attached to them and it remains difficult to foster engagement in ...

Back-up copies of previous versions of lists

A new member of academic staff recently deleted several sections and numerous resources from two reading lists by accident. There is currently no way of reverting to the previous versions of these lists, as Talis does not keep any back-ups. We can...

Customized cover images

Possibility to upload cover images for List items. Right now only a few resources will generate cover images in the list (mainly paper books), we would like to have an option to upload images. This would be a lot more visually attractive for stude...

Ability to 'cut & paste' sections of a reading list into another reading list. I work on multiple programmes where my subject is one of several within a module, each of which has its own, specific reading list associated. With the current set-up, this means that my texts need to be painstakingly added to each. functionality that enables you to lift whole sections (or a link to all/part of another reading list) would save huge amounts of time each year.

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, ...

Enable filtering of lists by items with Student Notes

Recently list filtering by items with Library Notes was enabled which has been very useful! We would also find it useful if we could filter by Student Notes too.
