  2. Please add the ability for libraries to add their own permission groups with specific level of controls set by administrators, or build more granular permission groups. Currently, administration level access is required to do many of the features explained to us for showcase approves and Vega Homepage displays.

    We do not want to give all of our librarians "admin" level and "staff" is not high enough to make our day to day work possible.

  3. Note fields include useful information that is meant to be displayed to users. This information helps users decide if the resource described is relevant to their needs.

    A subtitle that appears only on the cover of a book might only appear in a 500 note. A note might specify that a resource is a reprint of an earlier publication or give the original title of a translation, just to name a few examples.

    Most notes are repeatable, so all instances of these MARC fields should display when there are multiple. Currently, only the first 505 (Contents note) displays.

    MARC 500…

  4. Vega Homepage Layouts are an excellent way to communicate with our patrons based on spotlighting showcases, new collections, as well as upcoming programs.

    Although this takes a lot of manual intervention whenever a change needs to be made. We'd love the ability to schedule Vega Homepage layouts for future months. Example: Saving Monthly Vega Showcases based on our libraries future focused campaigns (Summer reading, poetry month, heritage months, etc.).

  7. Patrons would like to be able to remove a title from their reading history. (one by one ideally, though in a batch using check marks would work). Sometimes patrons borrow something and never get the time to read it and/or change their minds and never read it...

  8. Displaying the full title (245) including the statement of responsibility (subfield ǂc) will help users identify additional contributors associated with a title.

    There are also sometimes additional titles within this part of the field. Subfield ǂc includes all information following the first slash.

    Examples:

    The point less taken / ǂc Geoffrey Young. Some trees / Lucas Reiner.

    Shock shop. ǂn Volume one, ǂp Something in the woods, in the dark / ǂc written by Cullen Bunn ; art by Danny Luckert ; letters by Nate Piekos of Blambot. Familiars / written by Cullen Bunn ; art by Leila Leiz ;…

  10. Searching by call# has always been available to staff and patrons and though we've only been live a short few days, staff have already experienced the need to search by call# (a patron brought a call# to staff and staff had to go into Sierra to find the title they were referencing). Our call#s are stored in the item records and we would like to be able to search by call#.

  11. Add an alert feature to Vega Admin that will notify select users when an extraction fails. Currently, when an extraction fails in Vega Admin, there is no way to know unless you manually check the logs. This can be time-consuming and frustrating. By adding an alert feature, users will be notified immediately or on desired intervals when an extraction fails, allowing the user to take action quickly and minimize issues as a result of the failure.

  15. The removal of bibliographic record set imports from Polaris’ Content Carousel has made it difficult for our staff to maintain their existing catalog lists within Vega’s Showcases. Please allow libraries the ability to use advance search capabilities within Vega Discovery to help build better Showcases (Saved Searches lists). Two methods that would work best for our library:
    1) Expand on Advanced Search through Vega (Currently on the roadmap, but we are unaware of what will come from this feature).
    2) Allow importing of Bibliographic Record Sets as Saved Searches or Showcases (This is what would make our librarians’ lives the…

  16. Currently in Vega, patrons cannot search by genre (655 tag). The ability to search or refine by genre would be really helpful, since patrons could then more easily search for genres such as "Picture books" or "Science fiction."

  17. This field is used for publisher’s/distributor’s numbers for video recordings, sound recordings (including audiobooks), and printed music. These numbers are important access points for these materials.

    All 028 fields should be indexed, regardless of indicators.

  18. Include additional contributors in the expanded details display for the individual manifestations (MARC 700), this is especially important when multiple versions are rolled up together.

    Currently, all added contributors for all versions are displayed at the bottom of the page of the roll-up and it is hard to find and identify specific translations or audio-book narrators. This also results in a work with multiple authors only having the first one recognized

  19. The current functionality of Vega Discovery allows patrons to filter their search results by selecting one or more facets from the left-hand panel. However, there is no option to exclude results. For example, a patron who is looking for books on history may want to exclude ebooks or audiobooks from the results.

    This enhancement request proposes to add an option to exclude content via facet selection and or other means. This would allow patrons to refine their search results more effectively and find the most relevant resources for their needs.

    Adding an option to exclude content via facet selection would…
