  1. 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.

  2. Currently, when you renew an item, your checked out date updates to the date you renewed. Patrons have asked that it show the original check out date. So an item checked out originally in November and renewed in December would show the new due date, renewals remaining, and the original due date (not the date item was renewed). I suppose it could show renewal date, so long as original checkout date was available to see somewhere on the account (patron view).

  3. This message appears when trying to freeze a reserved material that is in transit or has already arrived at the reservation shelf. Our Vega is in Swedish so we wish that this message can translate to Swedish and other languages.

  4. When editing the Manage Translations strings, it would be helpful to know where we could look at the context for strings and/or confirm that a change was implemented.

    For example, there are various "GET IT" strings, such as:
    "getFromAmazon": "Get from Amazon",
    "getIt": "GET IT",
    "getItBtn": "get it",
    "getItem": "Get Item",
    "getMaterial": "Get Material",
    "holdGetIt": "Get It"

    It would be helpful to have clarity on where/the context in which each of these is used.

  5. It appears that editing a site name after its creation is not feasible. While the "Library Name" can be modified, there seems to be a limitation in altering the displayed "Site name" in your list of configured locations. Please refer to the included image where the issue is highlighted in yellow.

  6. There are times when it makes sense to edit the pickup location text or reorganize the listing. Our consortia central offices processes ILL requests for the correctional facilities in our region and also recieves items in delivery for cataloging and staff requests. We are not open to the public. The pickup location is necessary as a selection, but we would like to move it to the end of the list and label it with "Staff Use Only", as we did in Encore. Another example is a temporary closure or access issue that could be communicated at the time of selection

  7. When a patron goes into a list of bookmarks, the default sort order is oldest first. I would prefer it if the resources I just added appear at the top of the list without having to scroll or re-sort.

  8. If a patron searches Vega and gets zero results, can the results page say something like, "Can't find what you're looking for? Try Link+"

    See an example from another library's catalog that does this.

  9. After selecting a showcase image on a carousel to read more and then selecting the back button when you are reading it would be nice to go back to the carousel rather than the home page.

  11. Currently, these links only open in a new window/tab. Especially in Kiosk situations it would be advantageous to have the links open in the same window.

  14. Now that the thumbnail updates based on which tab of the roll-up is selected, if the thumbnail does not exist for that item type, it should display the image that does exist. For example, if the thumbnail exists for the book, but not for the audiobook, when you click on the audiobook tab, the thumbnail should display the book rather than displaying a generic blank image.

  15. When choosing to sort a list under My Bookshelf (Checkouts, Holds, Reading History), initial articles and punctuation at the beginning of the title (such as quotation marks) are not ignored when sorting alphabetically by title. Could this be changed so that sorting alphabetically by title will follow the MARC record's 245 second indicator, which gives instruction on how many spaces to ignore when filing alphabetically (e.g., 245 second indicator of 4 would be used when "The " is at the beginning of a title)?

  16. When you navigate to another page in Vega Discover, we're seeing some confusion with users on how to perform a new search. We wondered if it would be helpful to have the word "Search" underneath the magnifying glass icon in the top right hand corner of the page.

  17. MARC record visibility: Give libraries the ability to suppress the Full MARC record link. Our MARC records contain information that could be used to identify specific staff members.

  18. We would like to propose for a new feature to be developed that our librarians can use to publish book tips directly on our Vega Discover homepage.

    Ideally, on the homepage a title image can be displayed with a short, descriptive blurb written by the librarian and clicking it would lead to the actual a dedicated Book Tips page where the full entry is displayed, as well as earlier entries. The destination page itself can either be fully integrated part of into Vega Discover itself or link out to an a customizable external website URL (the URL should in that…

  19. We would like to make the color of the search icon and other icons that have the same orange color to be customizable. This would increase the possibility to create the same look and feel that the other websites of our city have.

  20. We are using the "Link to Patron Accounts" URL options from the documentation to send our patrons to the Login Popup when they link to login to their account. Documentation: https://documentation.iii.com/vega/admin/admin/Link_to_patron_accounts.htm
    When we do this their profile screen, checkouts, holds, etc displays automatically. These screens should be visible only when selected by the customer. This is especially problematic when a customer is logging into their account in a public area. It is a privacy issue.
