New and Changed Leganto Features

The following features are new or changed in this month's release of Leganto.

Lock / Unlock Reading List

Any reading list owner (or librarian) can lock a reading list. A locked list cannot be edited by anyone, except for a librarian or list owner (in Leganto). All options for editing the list disappear from the Leganto action menus, and items cannot be rearranged. The following actions can be performed on a locked list:

Add or edit the private note to a citation
Like or mark a citation as read
Add a comment to the citation
Copy the citation to My Collection
Export or print the reading list, section, or citation
Copy the permalink of the reading list, section, or citation
Unlock the list - Only the person who locked the list (not the other owners) or a librarian can unlock the list.

To lock the list, select Lock in the reading list menu and click OK in the confirmation dialog box.

After locking the list, the option Unlock is available to the user who locked the list (and any librarian). Also see the change in Alma for this feature.

After searching for an item on the Find Lists page, you can now sort the results by list name (alphabetic with active courses first), list name (alphabetic), or academic year (by term, alphabetic within term).
