  3. It would be helpful if clicking on an author's name in Vega would result in a list of titles by that author, in addition to the short synopsis currently associated with the author's name.

  4. In the account portal, users want to sort their holds by where they are in the hold queues. They can do this, but the sort is not by the full value of the number. I can't imagine that anyone would expect the current sort.

    I have attached an example.
    In this list the sort appears as : 10, 17, 157, 30, 4

  5. Please make it so that the timeout period for kiosks can be applied only when a patron has logged into their account. While there might be a need to end a session if a patron has only done a search for something, it seems much more important to make sure a patron's account is logged out in a timely manner if they've forgotten to that themselves.

  6. Could you please add support for a single configuration field where we can paste our Google Analytics Measurement ID (tracking key)? Ideally, this would be a dialog box or settings field in the admin/back-end interface that automatically injects the Google Analytics script across the site once the key is provided.

    This will allow us to manage our own Google Analytics account without requiring us to write custom scripts to go in page footers, etc.

  7. Searching by item barcode was available in our previous discovery layer and staff found it very beneficial.

  8. Showcases can only be sorted chronologically by publication date or alphabetically by title. We'd like to have 'random' as an option, so that the showcase would be sorted randomly each time the page / showcase loads.

  9. When there are physical copies of the title available, the shelf location appears on the results page. However, if there are no physical copies on the shelf at any location, that shelf location is hidden and the user must click into a location in order to see the shelf location. It is inconvenient to have that information hidden on the front page.

  10. We were able to do this is Encore/WebPAC using scoping and the location codes. This is a critical feature that Vega is missing for Sierra customers, please bring this functionality back.

  11. Currently, addresses in the Library Info widget wrap text, as opposed to having line breaks like a proper address. I.e. in the images, the one labelled "Carbon edit" is how we want it to show up, but it shows up as seen in "Carbon widget". Additionally, words are also wrapping when they shouldn't be in other areas, as seen in the image of "Keg River widget". We would like this to display in the same way that it looks in the editor.

  14. We have a few libraries using Comics Plus, and they have requested that we integrate these materials into Vega. I understand that they do have an API.

  15. We conducted a test search for the following book title term:

    fable haven
    (The actual book / series title is Fabelhaven)

    It returns 13 results in our catalog, none of which are Fablehaven, nor did it suggest a “Did you mean fablehaven?" (Searching "fable haven" in quotes as an exact search returns 0 results, as it should).

    It seems that the Vega search engine should be able to find relevant search results when this term is combined into one word, or should at least suggest “Did you mean fablehaven” in the case of searching fable haven as two words and…

  16. We would like the option to hide the due date column, since it's not very reliable information. Our consortium has autorenew, so there is no guarantee the items will be returned on the date that displays to patrons, in fact it's rather unlikely given the rate at which our items autorenew.

  17. Super frustrating to not be able to create a book list for displays or patrons needing a large amount of materials on a certain subject, and also not being able to easily print the list with the call number included. If there is an easier way to do this, please help me out: leticiag@harvard-diggins.org

  18. Currently, when a user gets to the end of the configured images, they have to use the back arrow. It would be a better user experience if the hero carousel navigated to the first image.

  19. I have worked at my current library for close to 6 months now. I cannot begin to describe the number of times a patron tells me they do not understand Vega Discover, or how to find out where an item is shelved. The filled in large green check mark is too distracting and confusing to patrons. That is a complaint I have heard repeatedly. The small open not filled in check mark with the library name is not visible enough to patrons, nor is it super obvious it's a hyperlink to the call number.

    This particular piece of Vega Discover…

  20. With the release of Patron Assist, staff can now place and cancel holds for patrons directly within Vega Discover. To better understand engagement with this feature, we would like the ability to track its usage. We request that Patron Assist activity be incorporated into the Vega Reports framework.
