Ability to upload sitemap (XML and/or TXT)
It is standard website practice — and has been for over 15 years — to upload a sitemap for google and other search engines to ingest. This ability would help Google and others to index the catalog's contents within Vega, improving search result rankings (i.e. SEO) for Vega Discover catalog content.

Sort order of attached items should match the sort order in Sierra.
Sort order of attached items should match the sort order in Sierra. Series can then display is order by volume not by date published which results in displaying the last volume first.

Recently Returned: What Patrons See Doesn't Match What Staff See in Polaris
We’ve noticed that Discover doesn’t display the “recently returned” shelving status that comes from Polaris even though "Recently Returned" appears as an option in our Item Mapping list. "Recently Returned" is not a true item status in Polaris. The item status for recently returned items is actually “In” (which is how these items appear in Discover), but the database flags an item depending on whether or not it is also considered "recently returned."
Discover offers its own perfectly good “recently returned” functionality, but it would be nice if the “Recently Returned” message that patrons see in Discover could match the…

autorenewals and C:239
autorenewals and c:239
Please allow items to be automatically renewable in the system without effort if the item isn't on hold.
Also please reinstate the searching code to limit to North Chicago Public Library easily. In Encore we could put " DVD and C:239" to limit to our DVDs in one step.

Separate sign in window when patrons log into account
This will allow us to directly link to a sign in page from our website rather than send them to catalog where they need to click login again. It was something we had in the Polaris PowerPAC. It also helped with e-sources since some of these databases require validation and it would need somewhere to send them to login.

Clickable/Interactable Library Information within the refine menu
One of our member libraries mentioned this as a possible feature request for Vega Discover.
They stated, "A great would be if you can click the library name to display item availability if under the location drop down if you can also display the library address and phone number. This would make it easy to click the phone number to call the library to check on real time status of an item for patrons etc. Very useful for staff and patrons!
Let's also have the library address be a clickable link that hops into google maps to navigate to the…

(Vega Homepage) Enable additional choices and customization options for Cover Carousels.
Empower premium users, accustomed to customization control, with a broader array of choices for displaying Cover Carousels. This includes options such as adjusting title character length, call numbers, and author character length. Additionally, provide more customization capabilities, such as the ability to modify box shapes and patterns. Furthermore, grant libraries the flexibility to select the size of cover jacket art presented on the homepage (small, medium, large, extra-large).

(Vega Homepage) Design Custom Pills for Larger Showcases
Firstly, thank you for introducing custom pills – it's fantastic! However, we're encountering challenges while managing a large showcase page for the kids' catalog due to the limitation on the number of items within a pill.
https://kidscategories-rhpl.na3.iiivega.com
If we aim to maintain a list of, let's say, 32 items alphabetically and occasionally want to add more, we find ourselves having to reconstruct all pills from scratch. This process is quite inconvenient. While we are willing to adapt if necessary, addressing this limitation would greatly enhance our experience.
We can see the benefits of pills spilling over into the Promote Web…

Advanced Search - ability to send customers to other sites (e.g., our website)
It would be useful if the advanced search could include a link to other sites, like our website, or our eCollections sites or our research and heritage resources.

Add Sort by Author for Bookmarks and Lists in patron accounts
Add Sort by Author Ascending/Descending options to Bookmarks and Lists in patron accounts.
Along with Title and Date Added, this is an option in WebPAC that patrons are used to having. It also makes sense to have consistent view/sort behavior across the catalog. So, since patrons are/will be able to sort search results, checkouts, holds, and reading history by author, they should be able to do the same with other lists, as well.

Standardize/improve the buttons and options at the top of search results
I know the information display on search result cards has been discussed for re-designing to make it easier for casual users. I hope that will extend to the information and buttons that live under the search bar but before the results as well.
In our catalog, customizations like the text strings and Vega guides have made it busier admittedly, but I would like the text sizes, button shapes, colours, and/or selectability indicators to be more consistent and arranged in a way that is more intuitive for navigation (easier said than done I know).
It is especially noticeable on smaller screens.…

Owning Libraries Not Showing B/C of Too Many Items on a Record
Currently, if there are more than 1000 items attached to a record, Vega only lists owning libraries (alphabetically) until that number is reached (and doesn't display the remaining libraries. Although there aren't many cases of a single record having so many attached items in my library, it does happen (think monthly magazines). It would be helpful if that number was increased.

Limit Collections in main site as well as collection sites
It would be great if there was a way to limit "Collections" on the main Discover search the same way you can limit on individual collection sites. In our particular use case, we have a single member library that has items in a collection that should only be visible on their collection site. Excluding that collection from all other collection sites is easy, but there isn't a way to do it on our main site. Thanks for your consideration!
