Add default collapsed view or "don't show this again" option for featured available titles display in My Bookshelf
The planned/upcoming feature (as of January 2025) to add the ability to filter My Bookshelf lists by item availability is a nice addition. However, in looking at the preview, staff have expressed concerns that some patrons may find the carousel display of featured available titles too much, as a common theme we hear in feedback about the My Bookshelf feature in general is that there is too much scrolling and clicking involved to navigate it. The planned feature includes an option to collapse the view, which is nice, but allowing patrons an option to either set the default view to…

you saved
Add the "You Saved" amounts (either this year or lifetime) to my account in Vega. We have this for patrons who checkout at staff station from Leap but sadly not available in our SIP connected Self Checks. Would be great to highlight this for patrons.

pickup location
Instead of only allowing a pickup location to be set as closed in Vega Discover for all libraries/branches, it would be helpful to be able to show a specific pickup location by a specific library/branch only. For example, we are a cooperative location. We are not a library. But our staff place holds to be picked up at our location. However, patrons accidentally choose our pickup location. On our old system, we were able to set it up so a particular pickup location would only display by OPAC profile (login). Can this functionality be added?
PO NOTES: This would require…

Logging when a customer logs into their Vega account
We would like to have some logging of when a customer signs into Vega. This would help us troubleshoot certain transactions the customer may have issues with. It would also provide counts for other types of usage reports pertaining to Vega usage.

Add Vietnamese to the list of customizable languages
Vietnamese would be a great addition to the list of available languages in Discover's configuration as we serve a large Vietnamese community.

Search box in top right corner defaults to last search option..
Here is the scenario: You do a search by title from the main search bar in Vega Discover. You scroll through the results and then decide to do an author search. Instead of scrolling back to the top of the page to use the main scroll bar, you just click the orange search icon in the top right corner and enter your author's name. The results will be that you get no results. The top search icon defaults to the last search option: All, Author, Concept, Series, Title. Users may/do not understand this and are confused by the lack of…

Editing eMaterial Vendor Information
Sometimes patrons can be confused concerning eMaterials not displaying the app that they receive the materials on. Being able to edit the vendor name under Edition Information (Additional Information in our case) would be helpful in mitigating that confusion.

Customizable display of call number
Are displays customizable? For example, could we exclude the words “collection” or “shelf location?” example: Shelf location 1st Floor Display Readers' Services | Collection Adult Fiction

Maintain authentication across collection sites
A patron that has signed in on the main Vega site or any collection site should remain signed in when linking to another collection site (unless the library has specifically limited sign in to an individual site). Currently, when an authenticated patron clicks to view another collection site, they lose their authentication. Patrons are not aware that they are on a completely separate site and are then confused when clicking on "My Bookshelf" does nothing. If they click on their account at the top of the page, they are prompted to sign and and are then authenticated without having to…

please add Blackstone as a supported eVendor.
Supported eResource vendors have added visibility in Vega Discover. We have integrated bibliographic eResources with that vendor and would like to maximize the visibility of this vendor.

Sharing Showcases across libraries
Similar to a feature BiblioCore offers, libraries want to see Lists that other libraries across the country/world are creating. Enhancement request could be to give libraries the ability to Share Showcases outside their organization.

Checkouts: More Information, Please
In the Classic catalog, when you view yor checkouts, the barcode is included (see https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951766-vega-discover/suggestions/46626907-add-the-item-barcode-to-the-checkouts-in-my-booksh) as is pertinent volume information. That information is not included when you view your checkout in Vega. We have multi-volume sets, magazine, etc., where this information would be helpful. We noticed this particularly when we set up a "dummy" ILL bib w/attached items (we don't have the Sierra ILL product, and our ILLs go through OCLC). Staff put details about the specific ILL in the attached item record, but Vega is only pulling the title from the bib, not the item volume information.
Ideally…

Showcases - Adding in an Alt Text Option for Custom Uploaded Images
Currently the alt text that is added to showcases (specifically on the Image Panels option in Showcase Groups) is not detailed enough. It would be helpful for accessibility needs to be able to include our own alternate text for custom uploaded images.

Only show children's content when in children's catalog/viewing children's material
When in the children's catalog, the Vega & Syndetics sections (Related Resources, Topics, etc) in the records should ideally only display children's titles. As an example, right now, when I pull up the Diary of a Wimpy Kid DVD, I'm seeing the Where'd You Go Bernadette DVD under Related Resources and A Man Called Otto DVD in Topics. We don't want to direct children toward adult titles.
It would actually be great to also be able to hide any adult items from Related Resources, Topics, etc. anytime a record for children's material is being viewed, whether in the main Vega…

Improve Locations Facet in Themed Kids Catalog
In the kid’s catalog version of Vega Discover for consortium use we are currently unable to neatly organize the location codes needed to limit the content to solely JUV materials. There can be many JUV codes in use for a single library which can be confusing for the patron if they’re looking for a specific library in the Locations facet.
Level 1 (library) codes do not appear in the Locations facet, even if the Level 2 (branch) codes are nestled under them. Being able to have a single location option for each library would be beneficial for the patron’s experience…

Adding Hindi, Arabic, Urdu, Tagalog, and Portuguese
Our library serves a very diverse patron base, and, while some commonly spoken languages are represented in Vega already, there are a few missing that we'd love to see added to better represent our demographics, if possible. The languages are Hindi, Urdu, Arabic, Tagalog, and Portuguese. I see someone else here has already requested Arabic and Urdu, so hopefully this helps too!

When searching by ISBN or other identifier for a specific format in rollup, have search results land on proper tab
This is more for library staff, but when searching by a standard number for a specific format, to have the search results land on the correct tab in rollup. For example, searching an ISBN for an e-resource will currently take to rollup but the book tab selected and not on the e-resource tab.
