  • You can now create a set of courses from an uploaded file
  • Help page customization: You can now define customized help pages for Leganto. To configure this, access the Help Pages mapping table at Configuration Menu > Leganto > Features > Help PagesOnce configured, the Help menu in the Leganto interface will bring the user to the defined URL.
  • Update of text labels for links: The out-of-the-box terms LTI and Permalink were replaced in Leganto since instructors are often unfamiliar with these terms.
  • New filter menu in Leganto: The Leganto filters have changed from tabbed filters to a drop-down list.
  • The new display_in_process parameter (Configuration Menu > Leganto > Features > Leganto Features) allows you to hide the process status in Leganto. When set to false, the status is suppressed. When set to true, which is the default, the status is displayed.
  • You can now use multiple digital viewer services in Leganto.
  • If a user has instructor privileges for one course but is a student in a second course in the LMS (CMS), Leganto now recognizes this scenario and displays the CMS entry only if the user is the instructor of the course. This is controlled by a new parameter, display_cms_entry_by_cms_role. When set to true, the CMS entry page is displayed according to the role in the CMS. When set to false, the CMS entry page is displayed according to the Alma user role.
  • Two new parameters allow you to define when and to whom the value in the general_message parameter will display. The new general_message_dates parameter allows you to specify a date range when the value in the general_message parameter will display. The new general_message_role parameter allows you to specify that the value in the general_message parameter will display only for the user role indicated. Possible values are instructor, student, librarian, guest, or leave empty for the general message to display to all users. 
  • The default_list_sort_instructors parameter (Configuration Menu > Leganto > List Management > Settings) now defaults to the list_updated value for the Citations list, meaning it is sorted by most recently updated.
  • Find lists by course year and term: Course year and course term are now available by default in the advanced search of Find list. You can define defaults in the Course Term drop-down list and in the Year field. You can edit these options in the Find List Settings table. If the course term is populated, it now appears in the List brief display.

    • The Time and Date and Time fields were added to Leganto Student Usage > Event Date to display the date and time of the event

This information is available in the Leganto Instructor Usage Events subject area, under Instructor Usage Events. Create a Course from LTI is now one of the event types.
  • Citation actions are now available from the full view of a citation, allowing users to take action on citations without having to return to the list view. The action menu options are similar to those available from the reading list view. 
    • The menu options are: Copy to my collection, Send to library, Mark as done, Link from the course to here, Re-link from the course to here, Create a shareable Link, Export to RefWorks, and Set complete.
