On selecting this link, the available tag options will appear in a drop-down menu for you to choose from. The options are essential, recommended and optional. Click on the tag you wish to add. If you accidentally choose the wrong tag, select the cross on the green box, labelled with the tag name, created immediately next to the tag link. 

Adding tags to individual items

To add a tag to an individual item on your list (e.g. a book) navigate to your list in Leganto and find the book that you wish to tag. Remember, if you have multiple sections on your list, you will need to click the section titles to see the list of items in the section. Under the item title, you will see a link labelled “Add tag” with a small, blue tag illustration.

On selecting this link, the tag options will appear in a drop-down menu for you to choose from. The options are essential, recommended, optional, lecture readings and purchase request.

Click on the tag you wish to add. If you accidentally choose the wrong tag, select the cross on the green box, labelled with the tag name, created immediately next to the tag link. 

Note:  When requesting a new book you must select Purchase Request, plus one of the other tags to ensure that the appropriate number of books or licences are ordered.
