  1. Deep links and cloning to subsequent semesters

    We would like deep links to Ares content which are imbedded in Canvas modules outside of reserve (pages, syllabi, etc.), to continue to work in Canvas in subsequent semesters if the course/items are reactivated in Ares for subsequent semesters. Canvas administrators have said that faculty would love this feature so they don't need to recreate the deep links for the same course/items each semester.

  2. Ability to give subsets of students in the same course section access to different items in the reserves list.

    We have courses where students are assigned different readings (such as case studies) to work on in groups. We don't want to have to license a case study for all the students if only a subsection of the class needs to read a particular case.

  4. API calls for item information using CourseID and CourseID(s) using item information

    The New School would like to be able to lookup a courseID and get the item status/info of items sharing the same course ID. I would ALSO like to be able to look up the item info (title/bibID) and see what courses are associated with it.

  5. Separate Queues for Workflow - Physical Items vs Digital Items

    In ARES, we currently have 3 staff assigned to manage workflow for Book Chapters/Articles and Print Materials. Currently, all items move into the "Awaiting Stacks Searching" tab without a way to control what items are chosen/sent to the printer so all items are printed and moved which can make it difficult to track (if items aren't moved back, or having to manually note/record which item numbers need to be moved away into a different queue then back).

    It would be useful if there were separate tabs. One tab for "Awaiting Physical Items - In Stacks Searching" and another tab for…

  6. Allow the Note field from the ItemNotes table to be chosen from the mail merge fields in print templates.

    We'd love to be able to include notes in our printed pull slips, but it's not an option that can be selected from the Insert Merge Field on the print template.
