Custom cover images should show up in Leap
We use ChiliFresh as a source for cover images and we also use their service to upload custom images for missing covers, kits, etc. After the MARC record is updated with the custom image tag, the new image shows up in the PowerPAC immediately. However, it never shows up in Leap. Leap is already pulling images from ChiliFresh (as well as other sources) for the cover images in Leap's item and bib records. It's really weird that it doesn't pull from the same source to get the custom image attached to the record.

Comparing authority records in Leap
Similar to the compare feature for bibliographic records, please implement a compare feature for authority records. This would be helpful when editing authority records in Leap.

Compare bibs with an outside source - Leap
We would like the ability to compare bibliographic records in Leap with ones from an outside source, like z39.50. This is a key part of our cataloguing process and is a necessary piece to moving those staff members over to Leap.

Call Number Scheme Menu in Item Records
We use only two call number schemes in item records, either “Dewey Decimal” or “Other”. I wonder if it is possible to hide the rest of the schemes from the dropdown menu in item records. This will reduce the chances of accidental selection of an incorrect scheme.

Send record sets to Label Manager in Leap
The desktop client has the ability to send a record set to Label Manager; Leap does not. Without this feature, mass relabelling projects such as adding a new section are an enormous drain on staff time.

Bibliographic consistency check when editing bibs
In cleaning up bibliographic data after years of laissez faire cataloguing practice, we have run into a consistent stumbling block that requires us to backtrack. Certain bytes, especially in the 007 and 008 fields appear to require consistency across them to properly read at an item level (we became aware of this when getting red toasts scanning items for a weeding record set, that appeared initially to be in the inclusion criteria).
By way of example: If you input in 007 an 01 byte of 'd - Videodisc', than the 04 byte would have to be 'g' 'h' 's' or…

Staff choice in error report output from "add from" function
In playing around with Weeding-type record sets, we have noted the following: using the action "add from Item Record set" yields, as its error report output, a list of item-level control numbers.
If you "add from file", the error report output is item barcodes - a way of searching for items that comes a bit more intuitively to our desk staff.
It would save us a couple processing steps to avoid importing from files, so we would love to use the "add from item record set" feature - however, the control number output for problem items (those that are outside…

Make it possible to save / share Power Searches in Leap outside of the individual level
Enhance operational efficiency and standardization by allowing the saving of Leap power searches beyond individual staff profiles. Currently, saved power searches reside only at the personal level, hindering consistent workflows and leading to duplicated effort. Enabling system- or library-level saving for power searches will allow libraries to establish shared, robust searches, improving consistency and ensuring critical search capabilities remain accessible regardless of staff changes.

Put Leap Column Find Tool display settings in alphabetical order or make filterable
If you are adjusting the column settings for Leap, the list of available options is not in alphabetical order. This makes it easier to overlook what options might be available to select.
As a former page, please put this in alphabetical order OR make the list filterable/searchable.

Provide an option in Leap to save bibliographic records without making changes first
I don't know if this is already planned for a future version; I didn't see it on the current roadmap, though. It's really important for cataloguers that they be able to save a bib record without having to make a change first, particularly for provisional bib records. The only way to make a provisional record become final is to resave it, and currently, Leap requires you to make a change in any bib record before saving it. I know the duplicate detection without saving is now available, and that's a great feature - but allowing at least provisional bib records…

Add series info when linking
Currently, if I want to add series information for a book in the item record when I link it, I would need to put it in the volume field. It'd be nice if there was an easy way to indicate if a book is part of a series and where it falls in the series without it creating a super long call number. Series info isn't standardized when it comes from publishers and isn't always included in the MARC record. This does make a difference for my patrons to know if a book is part of a series and would…

Edit Half-Deleted Item Records
When doing clean up work we run into instances where we are not able to delete something like shelf locations because it is assigned to records that are in a deleted state. While we know we can just delete the records 1 more time, some of these records are tied to other things we track and would prefer to keep them in the system.
Currently we bulk change them at the server level but would like a way to be able to do this within the ILS.

Launch bib record compare from Find Tool
It would be really helpful for fixing rollups if you could pick records to compare directly from the Find Tool instead of opening one record and then running a search again to find records to compare!

Add Items to a Record set from Patron's Hold List
Cataloging staff use staff cards to request items in for call number changes or various projects. It would be helpful for them to be able to add those items into a Record Set for bulk changes directly from the patron record Hold list, in lieu of individually from the item records.

Recall function
Create a recall function that is separate from the holds queue so Technical Services can get items back (for relabeling, for weeding, etc.). Technical Services often use internal cards to place holds on a specific barcode. This sometimes work, but has a few drawbacks:
1. The hold disrupts circulation (renewals, other holds, potentially in-transit)
2. If the item goes into a status that cannot fulfill holds (e.g. item becomes LOST), the holds will go back the queue and be reassigned to another item on the bib. Technical Services usually needs the specific barcode, not just any item on the bib.…

Leap add option to add fixed fields via bibliographic bulk change
Add the ability to add a 006 or 007 field to records via bibliographic bulk change in Leap. Leap has the ability to edit existing fixed fields via bulk change and the staff client offers the ability to add a new 006 or 007 via bulk change, so this would be part of bringing Leap into parity with the staff client. Bib records that come in from OCLC often lack the exact fixed field coding requires to display the correct Type of Material in Polaris so the ability to add missing fields via bulk change in Leap will make cataloging…

Allow for adding a file to a record set by UPC
Currently, the only option for importing a file with bibliographic data into a record set in Leap is by ISBN. It would be helpful for staff to have the option to be able to use UPC as well, as ISBN restricts this to just books and audiobooks. This leaves out DVDs and Blu-rays, as well as other non-book/audiobook material such as a Library of Things.

Control column display in item record history in Leap
Allow staff to customize the display of columns in the item record history, as they can in the display of search results. For example, our staff have pointed out that for each action the item's assigned branch displays prominently, but it is less relevant that the "location" (i.e., the branch where the history action took place). They would find it much clearer and easier to use if they could control the order of those columns, and set it as Date / Location / User/WKS / Status / Action / Assigned Branch.
