Enhancements
- Institutions can now control which list publishing options to display to instructors when sending a list to the library for review. The parameter show_publishing_options (Configuration > Leganto > List Management > Publishing) can be set to:
- All, Anyone — All students at the institution and Anyone
- All, Registered — All students at the institution and Course students
- Registered, All, Anyone — Course students, All students at the institution, and Anyone
- Registered, Anyone — Course students and Anyone
This parameter is only relevant when auto_publish_default_mode is set to No.The default setting when auto_publish_default_mode is set to No is Registered, All, Anyone. The default selected setting for this parameter is based on the setting in the publish_default_mode parameter. For more information, see Configuring Reading List Publication Options.
- When configured (Configuration > Leganto > List Management > Item Request Questions and Item Request Answers), the new UI now triggers Leganto Questions when adding items using Cite It! For more information, see Configuring Leganto Questions.
- When using the link selection or editor button, courses without lists now display a message indicating that This course doesn't have a list, and presents the option to Create a new list or link an existing list to this course. A similar workflow was previously available in the classic UI and is now also available in the new UI.
- Based on customer feedback, when viewing an unpublished list as a student, the banner now indicates that Your list isn't published and isn't visible to students.
- Based on customer feedback, when the checkbox is configured (Configuration > Leganto > Discovery > Primo Integration > primo_include_non_fullltext_option) to be displayed, selecting the Include records without full-text access checkbox automatically re-runs the search.
- Based on customer feedback, when editing an item and then saving your changes, the item full details now remains open.
Resolved
- In some cases, moving an item did not work as expected. This was fixed.
- When two banners were displayed, the last citation was cut off. This was fixed.
