Show library logo in mobile view
The library logo appears when on a library's collection site on a desktop computer, but on the phone it disappears. It would be nice if the logo could still display on mobile view.

Change font size of locations and copies available
It is very difficult to see the list of locations that hold the title and how many copies are available - customers are asking us to make this information larger

Stop displaying old titles as "On Order" when all existing copies have been withdrawn
Currently, when there are no remaining items on a bib record, Discover shows the status of that title as "On Order," when in reality, it just needs to go through a variety of processes before it is suppressed or deleted from the catalog. The "On Order" status should only appear if there is an open order in Sierra for that title.
6 votesPlease consider using this relatively new feature to control the display of such titles: https://knowledge.ag-software.clarivate.com/vega-discover/admin/HideRecordsFromCatalog.htm

Account Portal - Address edit text entry
The update to the account portal for City/State/Postalcode being text entry allows patrons to make these entries anything. These create new entries in the the Postalcode table, making it very messy (Made up cities/states/postcodes or incorrectly spelt, ect). These new entries then show from the drop down when patrons join online compounding the issue if new patrons choose the incorrect one. Example from our system using the State: NSW not the full text state New South Wales. Someone has created a New South Wales entry and other patrons have joined selecting it.

Account portal: make Holds and Checkouts icons clickable
Make the two large purple icons, not just the text below them, link to their sections. Especially on mobile, this would be more user friendly. I find myself expecting them to be buttons. Some patrons may have to zoom in to accurately tap the text links.
It could be the icons or even the entire rectangular boxes and everything in them.

Promote Relevance Button
In Encore there was a button for staff to manually promote the relevance of certain titles to appear at the top of search results. We'd like to see something similar implemented in Vega to ensure titles that we expect patrons to want to see first are listed first. Example below, of Ulysses by James Joyce being fourth in the results for a basic search of "ulysses"

Include scannable barcode with Patron Profile information
With support ending for the MyLibrary! App, we will be encouraging patrons to use our mobile-friendly Vega Discover Catalogue in a web browser on their device. One thing that will be missed is the ability to click "Show Card" to display a scannable barcode for checking out with staff or at a Self Checkout station. Currently, the barcode number is included in the patron profile but it would be great to add a scannable barcode image there as well.

search showcases by author and title
We have recently had the need for Showcase Admins to search all of our showcases by author. This can happen when libraries suddenly want to remove or add an author to a number of showcases, but don't know if they are already a part of that showcase.
We tried using the author record for this purpose, but authors can be associated with hundreds of resources so this is not a practical way to search for this data.
This can be a delicate issue for libraries as authors can suddenly appear in the news for various reasons and they need to…

Adding patron notes to fines and fees section
We would like the ability to post notes in the fines and fees section of the patron account to alert patrons of exceptions (in PayPal) when paying via credit card. There is confusion when payment do not go through and there is no reason given (void, incorrect credit card number entered, American Express not accepted...)

Add an integrated Book Tips feature
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…

Add a URL option that opens the Patron Login popup but sends the patron to search or home page after login.
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.6 votes -
Search box in top right corner defaults to last search option..
Here is the scenario: You do a search by title from the main search bar in Vega Discover. You scroll through the results and then decide to do an author search. Instead of scrolling back to the top of the page to use the main scroll bar, you just click the orange search icon in the top right corner and enter your author's name. The results will be that you get no results. The top search icon defaults to the last search option: All, Author, Concept, Series, Title. Users may/do not understand this and are confused by the lack of…

Editing eMaterial Vendor Information
Sometimes patrons can be confused concerning eMaterials not displaying the app that they receive the materials on. Being able to edit the vendor name under Edition Information (Additional Information in our case) would be helpful in mitigating that confusion.

Allow Message to Borrower in Sierra to display in Patron's Vega Account
This is available in WebPAC and Encore and is the core feature of the message to borrower field in Sierra. Please make this functionality available in Vega, otherwise the point of the message to borrower field is moot.
