Availability filter
The availability filter (the first filter you see) should either be edited to make it clearer what that filter means or removed altogether. It's not clear that availability in this context means available to borrow now, not available as in owned by a library. Either make it so this filter makes it clear that we are talking about available to borrow now, or remove it because it's very confusing when you're a patron who isn't spending time playing around with the catalog to understand the nuances of it. The way it's worded also just makes it seem like you're simply…

Issue and Item-specific holds
Users need to place item level requests in a variety of circumstances. The most significant issue is they are currently unable to request specific issues of magazines. They can only place a request at the title/work level – which means they end up getting a completely random issue. This is also a problem for Serial format titles for things like travel guides that may have two item records attached, one for the 2020 edition and one for the 2023 edition. There is currently no way to request the specific item. This also includes copy-specific holds for any item on a…
6 votesHi All,
Vega already supports volume and items as volumes type holds for materials with volume information. Please reach out to your support representative to gain insight in how to add the required volume information to your materials so that Vega will present a volume or item selector when a patron places a request on these materials. The feature was added for Polaris at the end of 2021.
Best Regards,

Due date display
Allow an option to display the Due Date if an item is checked out. Also helpful: displaying item statuses such as whether something is "on order" or "on Holdshelf" or on the "Repair Shelf." These previously appeared under "Status" in encore. This is the #1 thing our patrons and staff miss seeing in Vega.

Subject (Concept) in Vega Resource Records
Subjects (Concepts):
Vega needs to provide the bibframe Concepts as a list within the resource records so as to provide a way to do a search on the related terms from those specific bibs, not just from the facet limiters on the main results page.
3 votesThe Topics Showcase show all bibframe concepts related to a work on the full view of a title.

Add "Date" (Publication Date) to initial search facet
Our patrons want to be able to search for new-release titles on the Vega homepage. This is faster than doing a wildcard search and limiting by date-range.

Left align the author carousel
We've noticed the cover carousel is centred whilst the author is left aligned. It would be great if the author could be centre aligned too.

Change "barcode" at login to "barcode or username"
When logging in to a patron's account, they might not realize they can use their barcode or username, since it only says barcode. I log in with my username all the time. We would like to change the wording from barcode to "barcode or username" so it's clear that patrons have the option to use both.
4 votesHi Margaret,
You can change this easily today in your Vega catalog by going to the Staff Admin and using the Localization settings to edit your English strings file.
Search for 'loginFormBarcode' and edit this string to read, "Username or Barcode" and save. Vega will immediately display this string instead in the login prompt.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Best Regards,
Samantha Cunning
