Display More Note (5XX) Fields
Note fields include useful information that is meant to be displayed to users. This information helps users decide if the resource described is relevant to their needs.
A subtitle that appears only on the cover of a book might only appear in a 500 note. A note might specify that a resource is a reprint of an earlier publication or give the original title of a translation, just to name a few examples.
Most notes are repeatable, so all instances of these MARC fields should display when there are multiple. Currently, only the first 505 (Contents note) displays.

Display the Full Title (245) including Statement of Responsibility

There are also sometimes additional titles within this part of the field. Subfield ǂc includes all information following the first slash.
Examples:
The point less taken / ǂc Geoffrey Young. Some trees / Lucas Reiner.
Shock shop. ǂn Volume one, ǂp Something in the woods, in the dark / ǂc written by Cullen Bunn ; art by Danny Luckert ; letters by Nate Piekos of Blambot. Familiars / written by Cullen Bunn ; art by Leila Leiz ;…

Ability to remove a title from My Reading History
Patrons would like to be able to remove a title from their reading history. (one by one ideally, though in a batch using check marks would work). Sometimes patrons borrow something and never get the time to read it and/or change their minds and never read it...

Include all contributors in expanded detail display
Include additional contributors in the expanded details display for the individual manifestations (MARC 700), this is especially important when multiple versions are rolled up together.
Currently, all added contributors for all versions are displayed at the bottom of the page of the roll-up and it is hard to find and identify specific translations or audio-book narrators. This also results in a work with multiple authors only having the first one recognized45 votes -

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.

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.

Display ALL series
Vega only displays the first series tag (490, 800|t, 830) in a bibliographic record. There are many scenarios where a title may have multiple series tags for good reason. ALL series tags should display. A work may be titled the Boxcar children collection 3 and contain various volumes of the Boxcar children series, each tagged individually. To only display the first series tag (vol. 89) is misleading. There are also many instances of a popular numbered series also being part a publisher genre series (example for Iced by Felix Francis: Francis novels ; bk. 10 and Thorndike Press large print…

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…

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.

Index genre headings
We have several customers that use genre headings (655 field) to find materials. For example, "video recordings for the hearing impaired" helps deaf and hard-of-hearing customers locate DVDs with closed captioning. This is not a searchable field in Vega and there does not seem to be a way to find this information anywhere on the record.
