  1. We would like there to be a similar feature to map it that there is in the current PAC. This is NOT similar to Stack Map in that this would help users find nearby libraries/branches within the consortium that have items (that they could travel to) and Stack Map seems to show them where items are within the library (a map within the library).

  3. The Log In pop up disappears if the mouse is ever-so-slightly off the tab, and keeps closing. This can be frustrating. Can this be "sticky" once clicked, so it doesn't disappear while patrons are typing?

  4. By default Vega Discover loads zoomed in at 100% which cuts off a lot of useful information for the patron. The first record listed cuts off requiring scrolling and all the "Refine Results" don't show requiring scrolling. Vega requires an excessive amount of scrolling to see basic results. Zooming out to 90% rectifies this issue. I would like the option in admin settings to customize the default zoom level 70-100%. This will enhance the usability of Vega Discover and allow patrons the ability to see more vega options by default.

  5. We have the ability to turn off "Other books in the series" in our Syndetics settings which turns off the gray covers for items not owned in that section, but unfortunately we have no way to turn off just the "Similar Series" section of "You May also Like" without also turning off the "Top Picks" for individual titles in the "You May also Like" section. We would like "Top Picks" to be separate from "Similar Series" in the settings for "You May Also Like" so we can turn off one without turning off the other.

  6. We have the ability to see item availability within grid view on the regular Vega Discover site, but will not see that on the grid view within the customized Kids'/Themed (Kiosk) page. Please incorporate this for ease of visability within Kids'/Themed homepages. I've attached two screenshots showing the green/red boxes on a regular Vega Discover grid view versus the Kids'/Themed view.

  7. Work flow example: Vega sees the Bib Record is display in PAC (checked). Item Records associated to the Bib Record are all "Limited to pickup at..." (checked) the Place Hold dialog box shown on Vega should only reflect those values.

  8. Currently, you can only authenticate a patron by Patron ID or Barcode . Sometimes the libraries in the consortia don't tell us their barcode prefixes have changed and patrons were being blocked for no reason. So we are utilizing the SIP connection with OverDrive and Kanopy to block against patron type in Polaris, no longer utilizing the barcode prefixes so patrons have easier access. Now that fix might not work in Vega to authenticate OverDrive because we don't use the barcode.

  9. We would like to be able to suppress certain formats from appearing in the format list so it isn't so cluttered for patrons. We are aware that would eliminate certain results, but we would prefer it to appear cleaner rather than with so many options that patrons might not even understand.

  11. Currently, we are able to see a few of our e-items when searching in Kiosk mode. I would suggest full e-materials (Hoopla, Libby, etc) integration in Kiosk mode. If that is not possible, is there a way to exclude all e-items in Kiosk mode as we don't want our patrons to think that the e-items showing up are the only e-items we have?

  13. Could you please make it so we can create a view later list, just by adding an icon to the corner of the book image. This would be easier than having to click on the book to view it and then find the request or save button.

  15. 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…

  16. We would like to see Irish as a language option in Vega - we can provide the translation itself and just need the framework to be created.

  17. Clicking on All Menu to get to All Links, displays an unattractive view with a big block of dark screen. Is it possible to get rid of this block of dark screen or make it visually more appealing.

  18. Instead of only allowing a pickup location to be set as closed in Vega Discover for all libraries/branches, it would be helpful to be able to show a specific pickup location by a specific library/branch only. For example, we are a cooperative location. We are not a library. But our staff place holds to be picked up at our location. However, patrons accidentally choose our pickup location. On our old system, we were able to set it up so a particular pickup location would only display by OPAC profile (login). Can this functionality be added?

    PO NOTES: This would require…

  19. We would like any custom header and footer code to be active/enabled on the 404 page. This would add a seamless user experience no matter where the patron ends up on the website.

  20. Items that have zero item records but have Polaris SHRs on "Not currently Received " status show that they are "on shelf" at the branches with the SHRs even though there are no items at any of the branches. This had lead to patrons coming in looking for standing orders/ serial titles etc. that are not there.
