OpenAthens Ideas Portal

We're always looking for ways to improve our products, and we'd love your input to help us make that happen. Your suggestions will guide us in deciding where we should focus our future research and development.

Just sign in with your email to share your thoughts or vote for ideas you like—it'll help them get noticed!


Here’s how the portal is organised:

  • Librarians (Identity Providers): Share ideas that help organisations that manage user identities and provide access to online content and services. This includes improving the experience for students and researchers.

  • Publishers (Service Providers): Share ideas for organisations that offer content and services.

'Group' filter - scroll bar required

We would like to make a request that a scroll bar is made visible when there are multiple groups to choose from when assigning a personal account to a particular group. Please see attached picture for reference.


Currently, we are being shown 15 group options from which to chose. However, we have other options which do not appear and unless you are the person that has created these groups you are unaware of them.


A scroll bar in this section would be immensely useful to us and it would avoid creation of new random groups, if a new employee would take over the Admin maintenance site.
