Allow for alternate registration limitation in Vega Program
In addition to the age limits for Program Registration, it would be helpful to be able to limit by grade.
While age is a useful limit for early learning programs, many school age programs are limited by grade range. The option to select limit by grade, and then define the grades that can register, would help libraries when determining who can register for a program. Currently, libraries have to determine the age for the program based on the school registration birthday cut off, and that may not accurately reflect who is eligible to register. This causes confusion and friction for…11 votesUNDER REVIEW ·

As a workaround, you can create a custom question template to collect the grades of attendees or confirm they are in a specific grade.

"alt text"
An alt text field is needed for images uploaded to events in Program. With the new ADA accessibility rules taking effect in April, this is a vital aspect; without it, libraries simply can't use images or else they'll be out of compliance with the law.

Google Maps Opt In/Out in Event
Our Pop Up Library and our Bookmobile travel to events around the county. Events for those resources show a map based on the "event location" selected. That doesn't allow us to show a different map location for a community event though. We had an event and the map for the event shows a completely different library system. We tried to suppress the map by putting See location in the Event Description but that doesn't work. We need to be able to add an alternate map/address or be able to suppress the Google Map for individual events.

Add Name to Waitlist
It would significantly both the patron and the programmer experience if patrons could enter their name when they sign up for the waitlist. Programmers often don't know who is associated with an email, and sometimes we have to know the names. Additionally, patrons find the waitlist confusing without entering their name.

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.

"Log statistics" feature - Ability to add a title field and edit submitted entries
It's a great feature, but seems a little bare-bones at the moment? It would be fantastic to add a title field so that we know what program these additional attendance numbers are coming from, and also to be able to edit logged hours in case there's a mistake. Thank you!

Limit patron registration
It would be really nice if Vega Program would prevent a patron from registering for multiple events occurring at the same time, since they cannot possibly attend more than one at a time. An alert - via email, text (when available), or pop-up that either 1) the registration cannot be completed because they are registered for another event or 2) offer to cancel their existing registration and complete the current one.

Display Categories on Individual Event Page
Previously, other events in matching categories displayed at the bottom of the individual event pages. If they were removed to reduce scrolling, the addition of a category button or something that takes up less room could help patrons find similar events. We find that the "Similarly Named Events" section doesn't accurately reflect related programs.

Make an actual end time in the event entry area instead of hours/duration
Could you make it so you can put an end time in the end time field when you're entering an event? Or at least make more options than a four hour limit? Putting in custom minutes for events that are longer than that isn't very appealing. Thanks for considering!

Blacklist for Problem Patrons
We need a way to block problem patrons from being able to reserve rooms. It can either be a blacklist where we add the patron barcode or have Vega Program look at the MBlock in Sierra or the Polaris equivalent and deny that way.

Send Reminders to Enter Program Attendance
I know it's a long shot, but it would be incredibly helpful if there was a way to send a reminder email if program attendance hasn't been entered by a certain time period (i.e. a week after the program occurred), as staff often forget to enter attendance after events and we spend a lot of time trying to track down these errant stats.

notify me when registration opens
If registration opens on a certain date in the future, we'd appreciate a "Remind me when registration opens" option, so the interested party would get a notification on the day registration opens to register themselves.

Alert When Patrons/Guests Register for the Same Event Again
It would be really helpful if Vega Program would alert a patron or guest when registering for an event that they have already registered for. A checking of information against the current bookings and waiting list.
An alert such as on screen text or pop-up that says something along the lines of "You have already registered for # spaces at this event. (View <link>My Events</link>) Would you like to continue with your registration?" OR "You have already have # spaces on the waiting list. <View <link> My Events</link>) Would you like to continue with your registration?
We have this happening…

Add "Registration Closed" to the List View
Currently in the list view of upcoming Events, you see "Fully Booked", but it is not clear whether the waiting list is still open. The user would need to select the event and scroll down to see "it's not currently possible to join the waiting list".
To avoid extra clicks and scrolling, it would be good to add "Registration Closed" to the list view.4 votes -
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.

Staff side: Search Events - include an option for ALL under Status
On the Home screen, the Search Events function allows us to limit to a number of status options, but there is no option to search all status types.
Having an "All" option which returns every status type would be beneficial to staff event tracking workflows by allowing them to run a single search for all status types rather than separate searches for "All Approved Events", "Pending Approval", "Cancelled" etc.

Hierarchy for Category Colors
We'd like to use the color coding options, but for events with multiple categories, the color that displays seems to be whichever is first alphabetically. It would be nice to choose which categories take priority or to have a default color and only display a different color for specific categories. It would be most useful for us to have ages as a separate identifier that could be color-coded and have priority.

Bulk edit events
Libraries would like to have the capability to edit bulk events that are not part of a series. For example, if the Auditorium has an issue and is unavailable, move all the events to a different area.

Space
Adding category information to the spaces available and allowing them to be searched based on the category. i.e Auditorium , Meeting Hall.
