Present a dropdown of the configured hours where the collection site can choose their default.
For Collection Sites it would be useful to be able to set a default location to display the hours information from like you do at the consortia level.
Currently it uses the consortia default when a patron is not logged in.

Redirect patrons to home/preferred library Collection Site upon login
If the patron logs into a patron site that isn't their preferred or home library, give them the choice to be redirected to that site.
A choice would be preferred, since a patron may be logging in to complete a check out or list save against a collection site they do have access to, so we do not want to interrupt their experience unnecessarily.

Customize the patron search results experience even further
Grid View is soon to be launched. However, we have patrons who would prefer to have a 'text-like' view of search results, making it easy to browse quickly through what now represent pages and pages of results. Make it a customizable feature for patrons to be able to opt to view a textual results list. (perhaps this will also be easier for those requiring screen readers)

Add a 'Day' option for New Materials
Currently, we can refine our search for New Materials to: week, month, quarter, year. We are accustomed to seeing new materials catalogued within a day. Please add 'Day' to the Select Period options in the New Materials limiter.

Reading History Filter
Patrons with a lengthy reading history are looking for more options to filter objects, for example, by collection or item type. Right now, there is only the ability to sort by title, author, or date of checkout.

Show all editions automatically when a volume field is present in the item record
When there is a volume field in the item record, show all editions automatically, so that patrons can easily view all options without taking additional steps.
Right now, when patrons first view the Vega record, they must click "Find a Specific Edition," and then the down arrow, in order to see all editions held in the collection.

offer hyperlink to eResource site
We have had feedback from customers and staff that they would like the option to pass through to the eResource vendor from the resource record (via the 856). There is a "details" > "Note (electronic)" field that could be hyperlink.
Right now many libraries have their 856 $z or $y in the Note (Hyperlink) field that says something like "Click here..." or "Click link" - but this field is not hyperlinked.

Vega Admin - Library Info Widget to organize closure dates
When updating the Vega Admin closure dates for locations, the dates seem to be fixed in the order that they were created. It would be helpful to sort these by either date added or date of closure.
It would also be helpful to automatically hide the closure dates in the past. This is beneficial in our other platforms, including Library Market, our website calendar with Granicus, our Google Business pages, etc.

Select which titles display on a showcase carousel or collage
We've always used static image collages that mimic Vega's showcase carousels on our Vega Discover homepages. This approach helps us maintain a consistent visual style, especially when cover jackets occasionally appear that don’t match the look and feel we want to present in our catalog. Ideally, we’d love a way to feature specific titles in carousels—with the ability for them to drop off automatically once they're no longer relevant—while still ensuring the layout stays cohesive. Below is an example of one of our static image panels. Allow us to "favorite" titles in our lists somehow through Vega Discover or within…

Correctly Incorporate ISBD Punctuation in Title display
This is a problem that impacts AACR2 records, including a significant quantity of e-resources, government and vendor supplied bibliographic records>
Punctuation between subfields is treated as part of the subfield itself, causing irregularities in the display of several fields.
The way Vega removes the $h [GMD] from the MARC 245 field, and $b is present, the ISBD punctuation is also removed. {a [h] : b} becomes {a b}, some examples {a [h] / c} becomes {a } the : or / following the $h is added to the Genre field
According to ISBD rules the colon preceding the additional title…

Items with different content shouldn't be incorrectly combined into work displays
This is related to the suggestion "All metadata and content displayed for a work should use the same instance ISBN", but more specifically I'm seeing a problem with movies with different release years, but the same title (and same DVD publisher).
I can see this making sense for certain things - for example a book like The Grapes of Wrath, which we have several different editions of. The text is basically the same - there may be different forewords or other supplementary material, but for the most part it's less likely that a patron will be choosy about which edition…

Disable No Preference Selected in Patron's Setting
When staff members create a patron account in Polaris, our default notification preference is email. We'd like the ability to disable or hide the "No preference selected" option from Discover so patrons are forced to select one of our supported notification methods.

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!

Make Message to Borrower field in Sierra visible in the patron's Vega account
This functionality is available in WebPAC and Encore and is a core feature of Sierra to the discover layer.
Please make this visible in the patron's Vega account for full parity, otherwise the Message to Borrower field
in Sierra becomes moot.9 votes
