Add the ability to have multiple screens open at one time
I'd like to see the option to have more than only one screen open at one time, vs needing to close out the current screen before performing another/a different related search (like we can in the staff client).
22 votesThis idea was reviewed as part of the MEEP process, but the effort to "make Leap like the windows client" is too significant to be technically viable.
In an effort to address the heart of the issue, we have proposed the following related ideas be considered for voting instead:

Implementing these ideas together will give staff the ability to have multiple windows/tabs open for viewing multiple records. It will also allow staff to keep the Find Tool open as a workform.
I'm going to close this idea in favor of the other two.

Accessibility Needs for Leap Patron Registration
This is occurring in the Leap patron registration section. For accessibility purposes some of our staff tab through the patron registration and when hitting the zip code field and entering the zip, the select a city pop up box will appear showing multiple cities connected to that zip. The default spot for the tab to be at when this window appears is on the ok button, meaning none of the radio buttons have been selected yet. Then you must shift + tab and forward tab to eventually get to a radio button being highlighted. You can click the space bar…

Record Set Default Owner
Every time I create a record set, the Owner is defaulting to the first branch that I have the permission to create a record set for. It would be great to make the Owner to default to assigned or logged into branch.

Improve ability to share PAC links
Sometimes just sending the URL from the PAC address bar will result in a blank, white screen for the user on the other end. Attached are 2 strategies to offset this but it's a lot to expect staff to know and it would be great if URL links could just be shared with customers without this kind of intervention.

Provide additional details to PowerPAC usage statistics
The PowerPAC usage statistics provide a minimal view of the patron's use of our PowerPAC. We also use Vega Discover and cannot accurately compile information between them and with other platforms.
Examples to include/add: Total visits, total unique visitors, total searches submitted.

Allow for more than one 250 field
It is a basic principle of RDA and sometimes we can't display all the info in one field with commas when there are special editions of video games.

Change it so that failed logins don't update last activity date
Right now in the Polaris SIP environment, if you attempt to get patron information using a 63 message, but you put in the WRONG password, the patron accounts LAST ACTIVITY DATE will STILL be updated.
We recently had a vendor that for some crazy reason, went through and was attempting a 63 message for all patron barcodes they had on file. This updated the last activity date for tens of thousands of patron accounts.
Although I suppose there could be some arguments for this behavior, it should not be the default. By default if an account login FAILS, for any…

LEAP Keyboard Shortcuts and Cap Locks
We've discovered the keyboard shortcuts in LEAP do not work when you have cap locks on. Our catalogers are a 50/50 split on those who always have cap locks on while they work and those who don't. I'd like to have the option available for those who find it easiest to catalog with the cap locks and use the shortcuts.
This is related to a couple of other ideas - https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951742-ils-polaris/suggestions/48517199-keyboard-shortcuts-for-marc-editor

Permission that would block the checkout function but allow for check in of items.
We allow our Pages to check in items. In order to give them access they get access to Circulation control. That access is giving them access to both check out and check in of items. We would like to limit that access to only allow for check in and not check out. There seems to be a separate permission for the check in dialog box but nothing for check out and check out needs to be blocked for our Page group access.

Provide Export option from Check In
This would be very helpful for a number of uses - such as when your book drop is fouled and you need to quickly bag items, bulk return via RFID and save the info for later resolution.

When patron barcode changes, auto-update with Libby
Currently when a patron replaces their library card and gets a new barcode, staff have to manually reconnect them with their Libby account, which is connected to their old card number. This update should be automated so that patrons who lose their library cards don't also lose access to Libby or other eResources. I'm not sure if this would require an update to the API (?)
37 votesClosing based on the comment from Wes that this can be supported and libraries should contact Overdrive.
