Hi all, I've added a new idea to the Talis Ideas site, and I'm going to shamelessly promote it here. <http://lncn.eu/ejky> At the moment, if you "sign in" from a reading list item page to view a digitisation on Talis Aspire Digitised Content (TADC), you have to create a Reading List profile first. Most users who sign in to view a digitisation are students, who have little to gain from creating a profile on Talis Aspire at this point - they just want access to the digitised content. In our experience, ***any step which delays access to full text*** will deter users. We're already finding that this extra step in creating a TA profile at the point of accessing a digitisation is confusing students and leading to unnecessary support calls. Sample quote: "Why do I need to give you my name just to access a chapter?". I would like the profile creation to be skipped or deferred for users who are "only" signing in to view a digitisation.
