Citation Management FAQs

Is there a limit to the number of citations I can have in Leganto?

No.

 

Can I change the title or type of a citation?

Yes. Click on the Item menu (three dots) to the right of that citation and choose Edit item. That will bring up a box where you can make any necessary changes.

 

How do I move a citation in my list?

There are two ways to do this.

First, you can click and drag each citation to another location. First make sure you're viewing the list in Compact view. Then, hover over the citation you want to move. A series of six dots will appear to the left of the citation icon. You can drag the citation from there.

Second, click the Item menu (three dots) to the right of the citation you want to move. This will open a box that asks you for the new list and section location.

 

How do I add notes, tags, or due dates to a citation?

You can also change all of this by clicking on the Item menu (three dots) to the left of the citation and choosing Edit item. Go under the Item actions tab to access the same options.

Can I hide citations from students?

Yes, you can hide any citation from students if you want. Click on the citation’s title and click the Hide from students box. When you want it to display, you need to unhide it to make it visible. If you'd rather not hide and unhide every item, you can make each item a separate section on your list. You can set start and end dates for each section during which they'll be available to students.
