  3. Add call number to fields on the web used for cloning

    A site would like to add the call number field to the items tables on the web that are used for cloning/importing items into courses. The staff feel that the call number is an essential piece of info for faculty. We are not able to add this column in, or modify the tables at all, without breaking the functionality of the checkboxes.

  4. Staff would like to have scanned items automatically moved to the web

    Instead of having staff open the form in the staff client to process the items, they would like a utility to scan that folder and automatically move them.

    This could be an issue if sites are scanning ILLiad and Ares items to the same folder.

  7. Update ARES Api to get Reserve Item to include Instructor tags

    Ares Reserves API for get a specific course id list of reserve items there is not a field for "Instructor Tags"
    However the Ares Soap client to get classes and reserve items does allow for retrieval of filed for "Instructor Tags".
    I understand the Ares Soap client is older technology and is expected to be deprecated.

    Can the Ares Api for a specific course get reserve items be updated to return the "Instructor Tags"?

  8. Allow adding/removing an instructor for a course using ICourseEdit.html

    Now that a course can have multiple instructors, it should be possible to make changes to instructors using the web interface.

  10. Browser bookmarklet for adding web content to reserve lists.

    I have seen this functionality being used with other resource list creation software. Could something similar be developed to work with Ares?

  11. Include Tracking and History Tables in Export of multiple items

    I require the DateTime created and DateTime available for a set of a bunch of items. This is not a field in the standard reporting filter. and not exported data when exporting the filtered items.

    Also frustrating to not be able to export all data within a item as a general solutions for any other fields other people might want that exist in the items but not in the parseable report fields.

    recommended solution:
    Include Tracking Table and History Table in Export of multiple items data.

    Thank you.

  12. Keep history with rightsholder instead of the most recent entry only

    We would like to see a history of the communications with the rightsholder. Right now, we can only upload one document, which makes it difficult in those situations where Publisher A says "we don't own it" and sends us to Publisher B. We can only upload the final email for Publisher B. The next time we ask permission for the item, the item still says Publisher A, but our records say Publisher B. We can add notes, but they are not searchable, and then we have to recreate the process all over again. Having the ability to upload multiple documents…

  13. Options besides 'Granted' or 'Denied' in Contact Rightsholder option

    In a Fair Use situation, for example, a rightsholder has died and we can use it fairly, but there was no formal permission granted. We would like to have an options such as "Fair Use" and/or "Good Faith" that will help indicate that copyright wasn't formally granted or denied, but that we have a reason to use this item that is within the law.

  14. Enable 'Course Not Configured' message to be editable

    Reference Atlas Systems ticket 36722

    Currently, a message displays to users when reserves is not configured for a particular course (using Canvas integration, and possibly other LMS integrations). The message reads "This course has not yet been configured for Ares access. Please contact your instructor or system administrator about configuring this course for use with Ares." We would like this message to be editable/customizable. Per the ticket referenced above, this is not possible with the current Ares configuration.

  16. Include a column for last flag added

    The new column would show the LastFlag added in the item grid and only display whichever flag name from the ItemFlags table that had the most recent date.

  18. chromium

    Update the Google Scholar addon so that instead of using IE it uses chromium scripting. This would also have to happen in the client. IE is being completely decommissioned in June 2022

  20. ACL report generated by semester, not specific dates

    CCC asks for reporting over semesters, not based on a specific set of dates, for the Annual Copyright License report. It would be great to be able to select the semester(s) for the report instead of having to enter dates as these can vary widely. We often turn access on months before the course is available to students, so that faculty can access their content. The dates of availability really don't correspond to actual semesters.
