  • New file upload form: The process of uploading a file to a citation is now more intuitive and user-friendly. To streamline the process of creating a new citation that is based on a file, the File option directs the user to first load the file. In many cases, Leganto extracts the metadata from the files and saves manual entry of the citation details. Also see Adding a Citation Manually.
  • List header redesign: Leganto now displays a streamlined view of the reading list header, showing only the first line of the list description and fewer details about the list. When expanded, you can select Read less or Less info to collapse the view. See Working with Reading Lists.
  • Left navigation panel removed
  • List status auto update when citation status changes: When a previously completed list has a citation status change due to one of the following parameters set in Configuration > Leganto > List Management > Course Reserves Automatic Statuses. For example, you can choose to have the list status change to Ready for Processing if the citation status changes when the instructor adds a tag.
  • Institutions can now integrate with the Learning Management System via LTI 1.3. 
    • LTI 1.3: Canvas LMS supports the ability to add a new button to the LMS text editor. Using this button in Canvas, you can now embed citations from your Leganto lists directly into the Canvas editor. For more information, see Editor Button.
  • The Reports tab was removed from Leganto due to technical issues. In the interim, you can use the List Analysis report. For more information, see Reading List Analytics.
  • A new parameter was added to Leganto Features: display_file_option (true/false, default true). When set to false, Add file (in the add item menu) does not display.
  • For instructor rollover, we updated the Rollover Look up course text to Select the course to which to roll over this list.
  • The Library can now decide how to display the login screen to a user who selects CiteIt! before logging in to Leganto. You can now configure Leganto to display a small login window and then redirect the user back to CiteIt.
  • When the request status of an item changes to In Process, an automatic resource locate is no longer performed since Leganto performs the resource locate automatically when the resource is added to the list. This previously resulted in an error message.
  • Upon selecting some actions, the citation menu in Leganto did not automatically close until the user manually selected elsewhere on the screen. Now, the citation menu automatically closes after selecting any option.
  • Section notes no longer have a full display. Only relevant note information such as the title and description displays.
  • We added the option for librarians to include a Description for item request questions (Configuration > Leganto > Item Request Questions). The Description is defined in the customer labels table and supports HTML tags.

Resolved

  • List description was lost when working with two tabs. This was fixed.
  • When uploading a PDF file, in some cases the citation type changed to Article for no reason. This was fixed.
  • List scrolled to the top In some cases for no reason. This was fixed.
  • In some cases, the list thumbnails were not displaying the correct thumbnails. This was fixed.

...

  • New MDE
    • Color coding has been made consistent across tabs and record types.
    • The record type tab (BIb, Holding...) will be bold with a dark blue underline when its contents are displayed in the record list on the left. If a record from a different tab is open for editing on the right, that tab will be light blue, not bold, underline. See screenshot (click to enlarge). 
  • When the Editing pane is in split mode, the underline of a tab will change to grey if the record being edited in the Editing pane is of a type different than the one currently in focus on the right. For example, if the record list on the left is for Bib records, and the Editing pane is split between bibs and holdings, with focus on the bibs, the Holdings tab will show as light grey. 
  • Accessibility: 
    • The filtering area of the Navigation panel is now accessible by keyboard. For further instruction, see Metadata Editor Accessibility Improvements in the ExL release notes.
    • Now you move between registries in the Navigation panel using keyboard keys. The selected registry is highlighted in light gray color, so you can always know where the focus is. In addition, the name of the currently selected tab will now be read by a screen reader, so that you know what the selected tab is.
    • Now a screen reader can read every section of the Browse Bibliographic Heading form.

  • New MDE:
    • When the records list was unpinned, and there were two records in Split mode, when clicking on action that collapsed the left record, the right record extended to the right side. The was fixed.
    • When the new MDE is opened for the first time in your session, it takes some time to load, and there was no clear indication of when the loading was complete, so users got used to pressing buttons over and over. To give a clear sense of the loading time, a loading indicator now displays until the MDE is ready for use. 
    • Holdings record could not be deleted when the holdings list was filtered. This was fixed.
    • After using F3 and clicking on 'Headings from bibliographic records' tab for searching, the response time is slow. This was fixed.
    • View Related Data / Add Inventory / Order menus were unavailable when the record was opened in View mode because it was locked by another cataloger. This was fixed.
  • Import profiles: Items Creation Policy had been added to the Update Inventory profile by mistake. This was fixed.
