In this release, we’re bringing you new ways to edit your catalogue content! In addition to adding titles to your custom catalogues, you can now move and delete multiple titles directly from the catalogue views.

Check out our new features in action at bnccatalist.ca!

Copy, move, or delete your titles

In each of the catalogue views, we’ve added Copy (blue star) , Move (blue star) , and Delete (blue star) buttons for you to use when managing your catalogue items.

The Copy button replaces the “Add to catalogue” button that was previously used in catalogues.

Entirely new in this release are the Move and Delete buttons, which allow catalogue creators and collaborators to move titles from one custom catalogue to another, or to delete titles from catalogues directly from the thumbnail, scroll, and grid views.

Your editing permissions for seasonal and custom catalogues determine which actions you may perform.

Note

The delete action deletes the title from the catalogue, not CataList. If you are a publisher and wish to remove your title fully from CataList, see Removing titles from CataList.

Act on multiple titles

Image Removed

You no longer have to add titles to catalogues one at a time! Instead of repeating the same set of steps for each title, use the checkbox next to each title to select all the items you wish to add to a catalogue, then click the Copy or Move icon in the floating menu.

Tip

Tip

You can select or deselect a range of titles. Click the checkbox that will be the start of the range, hold down the Shift key, and click the checkbox that will be the end of the range.

When selecting multiple titles, you can switch between the three catalogue views without losing your selections. You can also drag the menu to another location on the screen or minimize it to suit your workflow.

A new look to the “Add to catalogue” tool

Image Removed

Along with the new copy, move, and delete features, we’ve also changed the layout of the “Add to catalogue” dialog. The layout is uniform across the site, with one key addition that is available to users working in custom catalogues.

When you are in a custom catalogue and copying or moving titles, you can choose to include the titles' suggested order quantity with your action. To do so, select the “Include suggested orders with copied titles” checkbox when choosing the catalogue that you are copying or moving the title to.

Other changes in this release

  • Updated the design of the “Add to catalogue” button to match the new Copy and Move menus.
