  1. Technical services staff would like to see how the MARC was converted to BIBFRAME. Not for patron view, but staff would be interested to have the insight

  2. The little “sprite” helper icon is cute, but the text she brings up to help the patron find call numbers includes the sentence “Click the map to find it at the library." and there isn't a way to edit or remove this text.

  3. Magazines borrowed directly from Overdrive show the confusing resource for title result instead of the magazine issue itself. An extra step of Get Issue is required to show the issue. This appears to be covered under the Vega Product portal - Overdrive Magazines. However that is listed under the Later category. Monarch is asking if this could be expedited due to the confusion it is causing to staff and patrons.

  4. StackMap is an indoor mapping web application that helps patrons easily locate library resources including material, subjects wayfinding, rooms and public PCs in real-time. At this time, VEGA does not seem to support this application, but it does work in the default Polaris catalog.

    Vega Discover Premium and Consortia versions support an integration with StackMap, an indoor mapping web application that helps patrons easily locate library resources.


    Vega Discover Premium and Consortia libraries can reach out to support@stackmap.com to request the required script to embed into their custom header code.


    Please reach out to your Account Manager if you would like to know more about Discover Premium or Discover Consortia. 

  5. At present, we employ code adjustments in our customized header to reduce padding/spacing across Vega Discover's homepage. It would be highly beneficial if there were built-in options within Vega Homepage themes or experience settings to directly control and minimize this spacing. For reference, I've attached a screenshot showcasing our customized control with yellow highlights compared to the default spacing highlighted in magenta.

  6. The events component on the homepage currently does not automatically arrange events in chronological order. Additionally, there is no option for manual reordering, and modifying the sequence necessitates deleting preceding events to position a new item ahead of another.

  7. As Vega Discover Premium customers, we value a personalized approach. While we currently appreciate the Comic/Steampunk or modern designs, our goal for the future is to have the autonomy to customize this aspect ourselves.

  8. Allow patrons to "select all" to renew all eligible items from their checkout screen. Patrons with multiple items (sometimes 40 or more) have to select each individual item to renew. A "renew all" or "select all" feature would be helpful.

  9. Currently Vega Discover can only support one INN-Reach link. We have two available to our patrons and would like both to be linked to within Vega Discover.

  10. Current holds protocol as of November, 2023, prioritizes checked-out items owned by pickup library over items on shelf at other libraries. Give us flexible options to prioritize holds to suit our consortium's policies.

  11. In Encore, a patron could select several items to place on hold and put them in the cart and then select to request all of them with one click.

  12. We would like to be able to reduce the spacing between facets which was fixed in the "Refine Results Display Fix" so that more results could display on a page, as the space from a look and feel perspective is too big.

  13. Include volume of series in record display (490 $v). Currently, only the series and the semicolon prior to $v displays in Vega Discover. Including the series number would make it easier for patrons to find the volume they are looking for.

  14. We are running into an issue where our Item Status Mapping descriptions set in Polaris are not lining up with Vega. Vega looks like it is displaying the Item Status Name in the description column. It would be super nice to be able to change Mapping description in Vega like you can do in Polaris. Just a slight issue we have experienced and we are trying to figure out a work around for it. Thanks!

  15. Patrons are not finding the latest popular titles. patrons want to searc forJohn Grisham and immediately see the most "currently" relevant title- the one everyone is looking for, the one people are talking about and want to get their name on. Maybe it isnt even published. In Encore this is the first title you see, in Vega you wont find it for a bit.

    Relevancy must consider date of publication over the number of copies.

  16. In a large consortia the locations with smaller collections are not showing up. Only 40 sites show. This means the large libraries with more content are always displayed, and the big sites always get top billing. Our little librarys deserve the same exposure (maybe more). In the location facet all libraries should be listed if the result set includes content from their collections. Locations should be listed alphabetically and not by the number of items in the set.

  17. We currently utilize ILS code synchronization for Material type, status, (Sierra only) message code synchronization, and Location synchronization. We kindly request the addition of a 'Sync Now' feature for Collections.

    Currently, any newly added collections or changes to existing collections require an overnight job for processing. Until this process is completed, new collections will only display the collectionID instead of the intended naming scheme.

  18. Patron keeps commenting that they can't find the search box on the homepage. If the library can add two color scheme around the box to highlight the box, it will help the search box to stand out. If a lot of color schemes can be provided, library can change the color scheme based on season, special theme, special program, etc.

  20. Currently only one account has the ability to make administrative changes to the Vega Discover site. It would be valuable to have at least 2 accounts to ensure that libraries are in compliance with security standards and not sharing accounts when the primary account holder is out and to split the role as needed for more efficient workflows.
