The ability to use multiple Boolean operators in an advanced search
The order of the operators should not matter in an advanced search you should get the same search results for whatever order you enter the same search terms.

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.

Add Option to Exclude eContent from MARC Extraction
We currently have Overdrive content as records in our catalog and thus the API integration to Overdrive is not being used for the records. We'd like to continue to have those records in our catalog so staff and patrons can search in other places (Leap, PowerPAC, Innovative Mobile App etc) but be able to exclude them from Vega extraction so the API can be used instead.

Show Sierra patron messages in Vega
We would like the Sierra pop-up messages to show in the patron account in Vega. We use these messages to communicate with customers. As much of our services are now self-service, we need a way to communicate with them as they don't come to the desk.

Allow Partial Payments of Fines
Vega Discover allows patrons to choose individual fines they would like to pay but doesn't allow a patron to pay simply a set amount of their fines. Patrons would sometimes like to just pay a portion of their fines that will allow them to continue using the library. Add a feature that lets the patron enter the fine amount they want to pay of their total and have that portion deducted from their total fines.

Supported eResource vendors have added visibility in Vega Discover. We have integrated eResources with that vendor and would like to maximize the visibility of this vendor.

Reoccurring Events in Homepage Builder
Many libraries host weekly or monthly events, it would be helpful to have a reoccurring event block option in the Homepage Builder instead of having to input a date/time for each individual event.

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…

This will also allow Vega showcases to be created for popular items with unique loan periods.

Improve Hero carousel scheduling
It is great to have the ability to schedule content for Vega Home Page. This could be even better if scheduling for Hero Carousel elements was more flexible. Ideally, it would be nice to be able to schedule individual Hero images to be added and removed from the carousel independently.
I would like to be able to schedule the hero block to display always (or for a defined period) and then assign dates for different images included to be added and removed within it independently.
If that isn't possible, please add the ability to copy/clone a hero carousel so that…

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.

Reading History diplays pop-up warning with deletion.
When patrons are deleting anything from reading history a pop-up window will notify them that (currently) their entire history will be deleted: "Are you sure you want to delete your entire reading history?" And if individual title deleting becomes a possibility: "are you sure you want to delete this(these) titles?"

Right-click on covers to open in a new tab
When looking at an item record in Vega Discover, patrons should be able to right click on titles to open in a new tab (e.g., in the list of You May Also Like, Related Resources, Topics, etc.). Right now, patrons have to click on the title to open the record, see if we have it and where it's located. If they want to look at another title, they have to use the back button then wait for the page to refresh again, scroll down, and repeat.

More obvious cookie prompt.
It's possible this could be resolved with the new VPAT update but I have had a number of patrons tell us that our catalog was broken because they didn't see the cookie notification in the footer. Something more obvious/eye-catching (see Worldcat) might be better.

Allow selections for bulk holds to persist across pages in search results
When a user clicks on the new Selection boxes for bulk holds, then clicks to the next page to view more search results, the selected titles do not persist. I would expect to be able to page through and add titles across all of the pages of the search before choosing to Place Holds.
If the selections are limited to a single page of the search results, there should be a warning or prompt when you click to a subsequent page that gives you the option to place your holds before losing them.
Ideally, your selections should be maintained across…

Display ISBN qualifiers next to ISBN in Edition details
We would like to see the subfield q of the 020 field displayed next to the ISBN so users can tell which material types are included in a record. This was visible in the old PAC within the Full Display view (attached).

Don't "smart search" based on mouse position
In the search bar, if someone types a query and their mouse happens to be below the search bar, when they press enter, it performs the search based on the suggested title or concept that was where the mouse was positioned. This unwanted autocompleting has confused me and others, and I've only just deduced the cause (I think). Most search engines don't do this behaviour, so people don't even think to consider the position of their mouse when typing a search into a search box. It has caused frustration for our librarians and patrons.

Advanced search can be turned on at site level
We would like to be able to remove "advanced search" from the kids cat, however it appears that it is enabled across all the collection and kiosk sites if it is turned on. We would like to be able to enable it at the collection/kiosk site level if needed.

Allow lowercase letters to remain lowercase in translations.
We have noticed that in several places the second and third words start with a capital letter even though we have written the words in lowercase letters in the translation file. For Swedish (and more languages), it looks very strange when every word in a phrase or sentence begins with a capital letter.
Some examples:
"publisherInformation": "Information om utgivare", in Vega Information Om Utgivare"audience|general": "Allmän målgrupp", in Vega Allmän Målgrupp
"audience|juvenile": "Barn och ungdom (0–15 år)", in Vega Barn Och Ungdom
"audience|pre-adolescent": "Äldre barn (9–13 år)", in Vega Äldre Barn
"audience|preschool": "Yngre barn (0–5 år)", in Vega Yngre Barn
