Sorting bookmarks

It would be great if the bookmarks could be sorted e.g. A-Z or by Importance. A-Z would be great for library staff to sort the sections alphabetically and for lectures it might be practical to sort their section/list by Importance. It would be goo...

Move bookmark with a Move to section option

Once you add a bookmark to a section, it can be quite time-intensive to move it up or down. It would be great to have another option to move up/move down, to Move to (and then choose the section where you want to move it to).

Prompt staff to change end date if it has already passed when uploading a scan

In December I created a TADC request for a scan that wasn't uploaded until January, however the dates on the TADC were 1/1/24-30/12/24 (as the reading list still had a 2024 time period when I created the request). After uploading the scan TADC sai...

When bookmarking books to include ISBNs with 020 |z's in RDA records as well as 020 |a's

A lot of the large record downloads from suppliers and other sources set ISBNs for e-books with |z (used for faulty ISBNs) at the front, not |a's. This is because the ISBNs are not in the actual e-book text (an absurd and pointless cataloguing pra...

Display Author names with consistency

I've noticed that when you create a manual entry in Talis you are given a format to enter the author names as: Author (first name, surname) But this then causes a mismatch in how the author details are displayed when you use the Add Resource butto...

Search functionality in TADC

When using the 'search by' function in TADC the search parameters are currently restricted to 'request no.', 'course' or 'requester' Is it possible to broaden this to include ISBN, title of work or author at least? Other search terms such as publi...

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.
