Add 'Selected Pages' as a 'Resource Type' in reading list and change Page fields for 'From-To' to just 'Pages'ages

Referencing styles

It would be super cool if the Talis lists could be formatted according to the referencing style guide that is used by the discipline and had the fields populated appropriately. It would be giving added value to the students who need to use these f...

Ability to 'cut & paste' sections of a reading list into another reading list.
