Main Features

NERS: Notify Users When Broken Links are Resolved

March 2024 Leganto URM-198790NERS Enhancement (ID #8438)

It is now possible to send notifications to users who have reported broken links when the library staff has resolved the issue. Upon selecting Remove to remove a broken link alert in Alma, the staff member is prompted to Confirm that they do want to remove the broken link alert. Additionally, the confirmation message now includes the option to send a notification to the user about the resolved link. To send the broken link notification, keep the Notify user checkbox checked and select the relevant notification template (configured from (Configuration > Leganto > Features > Broken Link Notification Template Name)) for the fixed link. The text from the template displays in the Note to user box, and can be customized if needed. There is one out-of-the-box template which reads "We have resolved the issue. You can now access the item using the link below."

When the library staff member chooses Confirm, each user who reported the broken link receives the Leganto Marked As Broken Resolved Letter (Configuration > General > Letters > Letters Configuration). This letter is enabled by default.

The default text for the Note to user per template is customized in the Note to User(Configuration > Leganto > Features > Broken Link Notification) field. Library staff can override this text when sending the user notification.

For more information, see Notifying Users When Broken Links are Resolved.

Automatically Trigger Copyright Clearance Form

March 2024 Leganto URM-209995

It is now possible to automatically trigger the copyright clearance form when a file is added to a citation in Leganto. To enable this feature, ensure that the parameter instructor_copyright_clearance(Configuration > Fulfillment > Copyright Management > Leganto Copyright Settings) is set to course_association. The copyright clearance form will appear when the list is linked to a course and the user selects a copyright option that is mapped to a Copyright Status (Configuration > Leganto > List Management > File Upload Copyright Options) that is not set to Self Declared,Fair Use,Declined, or Approved. The status of the copyright request is viewable in the Item actions > Library services section.

For more information, see Automatically Trigger Copyright Clearance Form.

• March 2024 Leganto URM-207426 Due to loading times, the default presentation for lists that contain more than 150 items is collapsed regardless of the settings in the parameter sections_collapsed(Configuration > Leganto > UI > Settings). Institutions that had previously configured all lists to be opened with sections collapsed specifically due to performance issues should consider changing the parameter to show sections expanded for all lists shorter than 150 items.

  

  For more information, see Collapsing or Expanding a Section.

• March 2024 Leganto URM-204810 When searching for a list, Leganto now returns lists that contain all of the search terms in any combination of searchable fields. For example, a search for "Introduction history" returns lists with "introduction" in the list title or description and "history" in the course name. This flexible search behavior makes it easier for users to find the lists they are looking for using the simple search.

  

• March 2024 Leganto URM-203423 When the parameter force_PDF_viewer(Configuration > Leganto > Features > Leganto Features) is set to true, when opening a shareable link to a PDF, the user is automatically directed to a PDF of the citation rather than to the full citation in Leganto.
