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.

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.

"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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

"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!

Creating an iCAL link?
This is more of a question, but is there a way that you can generate an iCAL link or something similar so that you can add groups of events in a particular category to your Google Calendar? I know there's the option to do this individually for each event, but I was curious if there were bulk options. Thanks!

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.

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.

Saving as a Draft Blocks the Room
Saving a draft should block the room, which allows staff to be more efficient. They won't need to delete or unpublish public/private events to prevent the room from being booked.
This is important when 100+ events are happening in a single month.

Add to calendar
Can the public Add to Calendar link be something that can be more easily added to a Google calendar rather than just downloaded as an iCalendar file?

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…6 votes
