We've had a number of patrons who want to print out their list of checkouts. Ideally, there would be a print button that would print the whole list in a compact display. Really patrons should have print options for any information in their bookshelf.

Printing saved lists is important to many of our patrons. They use the printed lists to look for the books on the shelves or to share with others.

I would like the bookshelf option much better if when I open a themed bookshelf to look at titles, it also includes the call number and circ status.

REQUEST: Email function sends full list (bookmarks, reading history, saved search) in printer friendly text format instead of a link back to My Bookshelf.
FEATURE DETAILS

Bookmarks
Reading History
Saved Search

Patron is prompted to enter an email address to send the results toCLARIFICATION:
Any sorts applied before emailing/printing will be the same as the display page.
The limit of 100 is to prevent email bounces, encourage more responsible printing, and manage Network costs.This idea came from: https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951766-vega-discover/suggestions/47041423-print-saved-lists

We also have patrons asking to print holds lists for the same reason.

We were on Encore and now are on Vega. Patrons very much miss the "Print" link that allowed patrons to easily print their checked out items.

We receive requests to be able to print and/or export lists and showcases from both patrons and staff regularly!

Our users would like to be able to print out their bookmarks or export them, specific information (author/title/call number) like they can in the classic catalog. They don't want the book jacket, roll up stuff, shelf locations, etc.

In Vega, we can email saved lists/bookmarks to our emails, but that generates a link and if you try to print the list, it only prints what you are looking at, not the whole list.
It would be very helpful to be able to print the whole saved list.

Since going live with Vega, we have had a number of complaints about the inability to print lists of items. As others mention, patrons would like to be able to print their checkouts, holds, reading history, etc. Patrons and staff would also find it useful to be able to print out showcase lists. Ideally, such lists would print in a condensed, textual list, including title, author and call number.

I just had someone come up to me to complain (again) about the inability to print out her checkouts (in this case a large number of picture books) and getting all the images (and header) and multiple pages. In the Classic WebPAC, she can print out the titles, etc., just text and it's only a couple of pages. With Vega, it's 6 pages and the header repeats on each page, images use up a lot of space. She just wants to print out a list (text only) so she can walk around her house and find the picture books. She does not want to have to use the mobile app to do this, wants it on paper.
