    Additional Leganto Features

    The following additional changes were made in this month's release:
    • When adding a section to a reading list, the section is now added to the end of the list (instead of the top). When duplicating a section, the section is added after the one that is being duplicated. This behavior can be configured by an Alma parameter; see Additional Alma Configurations.
    • When exporting a reading list to a PDF, the PDF now contains section and citation tags, as well as the public note.
    • When adding or editing a citation, the field Notes was moved to More Item Details and was changed to Resource Notes, in order to distinguish it from the citation's public note. This field name was also changed on the Citation page.
    • When enabled by your library, you can now include search results without full text access when searching for items in Primo Central.

    • You can now add a citation public note when using Cite It! or when manually adding a citation.
