All metadata and content displayed for a work should use the same instance ISBN
Vega uses the newest edition of a book to retrieve the cover image from Syndetics. However the rest of the display data is not necessarily related to this newest book edition/instance record. For consistency, the Syndetics widget data and the displayed work metadata (author, title, 520 summary) should all be based on that same instance record.

Ability to create custom rollup rules
Add the ability to add local rules to assist titles/formats in rollups.
For example, a Vega library could create a rule that says Overdrive ebooks / eaudios can still rollup with physical materials even if the Overdrive MARC records lack a 245$b (subtitle) but the physical title MARC records contain a 245$b.

When searching by ISBN or other identifier for a specific format in rollup, have search results land on proper tab
This is more for library staff, but when searching by a standard number for a specific format, to have the search results land on the correct tab in rollup. For example, searching an ISBN for an e-resource will currently take to rollup but the book tab selected and not on the e-resource tab.

Add 028 to Indexed Identifiers
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.

Renewals remaining
We use Polaris and our old catalog showed the number of renewals remaining/available for patrons. We've heard from patrons and staff that this would be appreciated versus the current view (number of renewals taken). Thanks for considering!

Failed Extraction Alert in Vega Admin
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.

Adding a List View within the Bookmarks Tab
We recently received a request to add a list format option for the bookmarks tab. A patron stated that they wanted, "A list format option of looking at the titles with visible author, pub date, brief description as it was in the old catalog". This could be similar to our options when searching to switch from list to grid view.

disable renew button
In the patron record checkouts it would be useful if the renew button would disappear completely if the item out has existing holds on it (like it does in the powerpac now). Why give the illusion you can renew something to then just be denied?

Incorporate See / See Also authority record data in search results.
For example: If a patron searches for the author Noelle Stevenson, results for their established heading of ND Stevenson should come up.
or if Diwali is searched for, the established heading of Divali should be included in results.41 votes -
My Bookshelf Personal Lists option to view in text format v.s. Images
In the My Bookshelf Area, which includes Checkouts, Holds, Bookmarks, Saved Lists, Reading History and Showcases, it can be cumbersome for those patrons with large lists to view them. Patrons (and staff) are missing the ability to view multiple titles without having to scroll and would like the option to view these lists in a text format instead of what is currently available.

Add a call number index for searching
After testing a few call number searches, we are realizing that this feature would work best if there were an index for call number searching, to prevent erroneous results from appearing in the list. For example, if I want to search JUST Dewey call numbers of 300, I don't want to retrieve the movie with the title "300". Also, for our world language materials, we use call numbers to distinguish between Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese, and we are getting a lot of additional results with the keywords "Traditional" and "Chinese" in the bib. records. We want to be able…

Add options to exclude content via facet selection
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…

Display all 520 fields in record, not just the first one
We have many titles that are collections of multiple titles, such as Binge Boxes, that are cataloged with multiple 520 (summary) fields to cover all the titles contained in the set. However, only the first MARC 520 summary field displays in Vega, which is difficult for customers who are trying to find all titles contained in the collection. The table of contents is buried in "edition information--details", which is very small and not obvious to the average customer, so they often don't know what titles the collection contains. This is also true for some short story collections and CD compilations.…

Show public notes and urls from item records in Vega.
Show public notes and urls from item records in Vega. We have many items with information in public notes and urls in our Sierra system and they do not show in Vega. We would like them to show up for the patrons to see.

add On Order facet
Please work with libraries to determine a way to add an "on order" facet. We ingest all bibliographic records before we receive the physical copies. Library users can also place holds on these "on order" bibliographic records. Library users want to distinguish between "recently received" by the library and "recently ordered" by the library.
