At Sheffield Hallam University we are just about to go live with Talis Aspire.
Our staff are currently concerned about the limited amount of information displayed about an item on the top page of a list.
For example,
-They would prefer Author to be first or at least for the list to be sortable by author.
-Chapter's only include the chapter title (and the bookmarklet api does not pull in the chapter author)*
-Articles do not include any citation information eg the Journal title or year.
How do other institutions view this? Once more items have direct link Online buttons on them, do you think more should information be included on the top page? Or do you agree with Talis that the lists should be as simple as possible.

*I have put in an idea "Extending the Bookmarking API to recognise Chapter Author"
