Limit Bookings Across Rooms Within a Time Period
Several libraries in our consortium have multiple study rooms. They want to limit patrons to a single 'study room' booking across all of their study rooms for a given time period (e.g. Jane Doe can only book a single study room each day, but the next day she can book a room again, etc.).
Currently, they can limit bookings for an individual room, but the patron can just sign up for another room later that day (and go through them all in turn). I guess staff can monitor and delete duplicate bookings, and dedicated patrons will undoubtedly find other workarounds.

Ability for patrons to filter by ages as a separate dropdown (in addition to categories)
We have had to add the "ages" (for teens, for seniors, etc.) to our categories.
It would be ideal if ages were a separate dropdown that patrons could use in addition to categories and locations/libraries.
This would make it easier for patrons to filter information more effectively.

Event Approval Problem
Our workflow is this: librarians create events. Managers approve events. Admins publish the events. The problem lies in the approval process: Everything that's approved/ready to post goes to one big list. We host hundreds of events, so if we could filter by manager or building, that would be a huge enhancement. Another shortcoming is that the Admins have no way of knowing if the managers have approved their events. A three-step process for (1) creating; (2) approving (with a checkmark or something); and (3) publishing events would also be an enormous improvement.

Event and Meeting Room Calendar URLs for importing in Google Calendar
Staff would like to be able to have a URL available to them where variables can be altered so events and meeting room reservations can be imported into Google Calendar. It would also aid in the use of digital reservation panels outside meeting rooms which rely on Google Calendar to display a daily list of upcoming events and reservations.

Email Room Person Email Field Address when Reservation is made for a room
When a patron submits a room reservation, send an email to the address in the Email Room Person Email Field notifying staff that there is a pending room booking. We could then use the branch manager or staff distribution group email in the Room Person Email Field.

Set sort by to "relevance" by default
Set "Relevance" as the Default Search Option. Currently, the default search is set to "date," which often results in events being displayed that don't match the search keyword(s). Switching the default to "relevance" gives more accurate and meaningful search results.
Sort by Relevance results should be sorted by date. When the search is set to "relevance," the results are not sorted chronologically, which shows the events out of order.

Updating PACREG Library Card Numbers for Room Reservations
When someone applies for a library card, the ILS provides patrons a temporary library card number beginning with "PACREG." When a patron uses this temporary number to reserve a meeting room, there is no way for staff to update the library card number attached to a reservation. It is a read only field (which is opposite in event registrations.) The ILS communication is one way, pulling name data into VP. Is it possible for the library card numbers to somehow automatically update when a permanent card number is assigned? If not, is it possible to make this field editable for…

Grace, if you can open a Support ticket with the old card and the new card, we can ask if they can manually move the registrations to the old card.
I think Jen's suggestion would also work in your case, where being able to update the barcode would re-link their bookings and registrations.

cancel
When a patron cancels an room booking, ideally an email notification immediately goes out to the ROOM PERSON EMAIL for that room. This way staff know immediately that the room is cancelled.
This helps because we use a setup sheet at the beginning of each day to plan what furniture and equipment needs to be setup at the beginning of the day. Obviously, different setup is done at different times during the day, too, for multiple room bookings during the day.
Rather than go into Vega Program administration to see if room bookings have been cancelled at the beginning of…2 votes -
Preview an event before submitting
Is there a way that staff who are creating events can preview the event to see what everything looks like before submitting? Currently it seems like you can do this after an event is submitted (prior to publishing) but not when it's a draft.

Better Brochure Customization
It would be great if the brochures could be customized. Right now, it's more confusing to use them so we don't, and it's a miss opportunity.
Only programs with registration include "Bookings Required" text, but others don't say that they're drop in. Also, for "Bookings Required", patrons have no way of knowing whether the program is drop in, register online, or register by phone. Registration information would be ideal.
Including tags is confusing on the patron end because they all get cut off. It would be ideal to have the option to remove the tags from the public brochures.

Brochure "Get in Touch" only shows main contact phone number
In the brochure, the "Get In Touch" section always displays the main library name and phone number. If you choose just one library location and generate the events for that location, it still gives you the general phone number. It would be great to show the phone number of the branch/branches that were filtered.

In the meantime, there is a widget for a rotating carousel of featured events.

Email contact person when event registration is full
We have staff that would like to be alerted when an event has no registration spots remaining–event is full. It allows staff to determine if additional spots can be added, sometimes by a change of location or meeting space. An email alert to the event contact would be a great heads up without staff having to self monitor the registration list. (Especially with decentralized programming efforts (virtual and in-person) occurring for numerous programs a month.

Room bookings limited to specific PTypes from ILS
We have certain PTYPES in our system like eCards which we do not want to be able to book rooms in our library system (they are primarily for accessing eMaterials). We would like some way to specify which PTypes are able to book rooms.

Support for no end-date programs
Add functionality for creating programs that run in perpetuity? e.g., "Thursdays at noon", but no starting/ending date.
