Site Level Showcase Roles
We are a consortium whose libraries SHOULD be able to manage their own showcases but should NOT be able to manage each others' showcases. Only we should be able to have system-wide showcase admin privileges. However, there is currently no showcase admin role at the collection site level, which means that we can't assign the showcase admin role to ANY of our libraries' staff users, since the current showcase admin role is simply too broad and all-encompassing. So we are left managing all our libraries' showcase admin tasks ourselves, which is less than ideal.
To be clear, we don't have an issue with all our libraries' showcases displaying in each others' collection sites when patrons perform searches (if that's what they want - it should be up to them). We are simply asking for there to be a showcase admin role at the collection site level so they can manage their own showcases, and only their own showcases.

What is the Problem we're solving and why?
Vega Consortia Libraries and Multi-Library Organizations would like to be able to manage showcase admin access by site. Site Level Showcase Admin Users should be able to quickly filter available showcases to those created in their Collection Site as well as retain view and use access to all showcases created by librarians in their organization.
Job Stories:
- As a Site Admin, I can assign Showcase Creators and Admins for specific sites, that are limited to creating and editing showcases in a particular site(s).
- As a Site Admin or Content Admin User, I can use the Home Page tools to filter, view, search, and find showcases that were made in the current Collection Site I am editing the Home Page display for.
- As a Site Level Showcase Creator or Admin, I can only access the Showcase tab when logged into the site(s) I have permissions in.
- As a Site Level Showcase Admin, I can edit Showcases that were created in my site.
- As a Site Level Showcase Admin, I cannot edit Showcases that were created in sites I do not have permissions for but I can view and use these showcases.
- As a Staff Showcase Creator or Admin, I can use the Showcases tab to filter, view, search, and find showcases that were made in the current Collection Site I am logged into.

This would be really helpful! Right now we don't do a lot of collection showcase changes at the library level because of the headache of having to ask every time one needs to be added or removed.
