    To configure Leganto, you must have one of the following roles:

    • Fulfillment Administrator

    • General System Administrator

    You can configure the following Leganto UI elements in Alma:

    • Configuring External Services for Leganto

      Leganto's connection to RefWorks, Google Preview/Analytics, Mendeley, Facebook, CLA (UK), CCC (US), recommendation services, and others.

    • Configuring the Repository Search in Leganto

      Whether Leganto users search Primo/Primo VE or Alma, and how the search is presented in Leganto. Also, whether repository information overrides citation information when a resource is located in the Alma repository.

    • Configuring Default Statuses for Citations/Reading Lists

      The initial status of a citation, based on its type or source.

    • Configuring Leganto Copyright-Related Procedures

      Automatic copyright workflow: what is presented in Leganto, mandatory fields, and default values.

    • Configuring Notifications

      Notification types, and whether Leganto emails notifications to students.

    • Configuring Other Leganto UI Elements

      Default Leganto branding, what happens when instructors log in to Leganto, how courses work, how working with reading lists works, various display options, how file upload works, how links work, and how sections work.

    Recommended Features

    To help you better use Leganto, a persistent menu includes an option to view feature recommendations that are currently disabled for your institution. The Feature Recommendations icon is found on the persistent menu.
    The Recommended Features icon is visible to librarians and users with the Fulfillment Administrator or Leganto Interface Administrator roles.

    Persistent Menu - Recommended Features icon
    When selecting the icon, the Recommended Features menu appears:

    Recommended Feature menu
    If you have the Fulfillment Administrator or Leganto Interface Administrator roles, you can enable any of the recommended features directly from this menu. If all the recommended features are enabled, no items appear. 
    To translate the languages of the labels, you can configure this in the Recommended Feature Names and Recommended Features Descriptions tables.
    To enable this feature, set the recommended_features parameter to true (Configuration menu > Features > Leganto Features). When set to false, the Recommended Features menu is hidden.
