  3. Event Search> Search Term: Incorporate event descriptions into the search parameters so a search will find keywords in a description and not just the title/series/category/note.

    Note: a previous enhancement request was implemented on the public side only 10/29/24 (https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951976-vega-program/suggestions/48176696-keyword-description-search#comments)

  4. We'd like to make better use of the brochure feature, and one limitation we encounter is that the room names are not listed on the brochures.

    Our patrons rely on our calendar to know not only when events are, but where in the building they are. Branch name is helpful, but a room name would increase the usability of brochures for us.

  6. Have the event category use an "and" boolean so we can check two boxes and only get results that apply to both categories. (Right now it's an "or" boolean, so we are getting everything for both.)

  7. When the calendar view for patrons defaults to all locations, it looks especially overwhelming when there are a lot of locations who do a lot of different events. It would be helpful and less taxing on patrons to have a blank view if no location is selected when switching to calendar view rather than showing all events.

  8. Blocking off closed dates is tedious for a system that has a lot of locations. If Program could communicate with Polaris/Sierra, that would make life a lot easier for everyone!

  9. It would be great if we could add simple formatting for booking rooms, such as adding a hyperlink to our room policies and other documents they may need to book a room with us.

  10. Would be nice to have a "Remind me about this program" button on the public view for events that do not require registration. The interested users could get a reminder notification (email/SMS) like 24 hours before the event.

  11. Programs like Facebook allow the user to indicate interest in an event without registering. Would be a nice feature to have in Program Registration. The library could gauge interest in a program that does not require registration for planning purposes. The patron could get the reminders about the event.

  12. Some library programs include contests that are added to the events calendar (short story & card design contests, themed newsletter programs, displays, etc.). These events are required to have set hours.

    Staff are are approximating "All Day" with a time range of 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM, but it would be less clunky to have an All Day option.

  13. When staff are booking a study room for patrons, allow them to enter specific start/end times. For example, our library's rooms are booked in 1-hour increments. But if a patron shows up at 10:15 and wants to use a room that is booked at 11am, there's no way to book the room for just 45 minutes, even on the staff side. If staff enters 10:15 as the start time, the software changes the default end time to 11:15, and there's no way to change it to 11am.

    Another way to resolve this would be to allow both patrons and staff…

  14. It would be helpful to patrons if a calendar for selecting a date range appeared on the search results page. Many times patrons aren't searching for the next available program, they want to know what's happening next week or however far in advance. This could be either a relative filter (ie, 'next week', 'this week', 'next month', 'this month') or specific dates you could pick on the calendar. (Or both?)

    It would also be helpful if filtering down those search results by date let us link back to them! For example, so we could do a search for all storytimes…

  16. Now that we can publicize room blockouts with holidays, it would be great if we could edit existing block outs rather than having to delete them and re-block.

    We block all our holidays for the year in advance, so we had to go through all our locations, delete all blocks, and re-block them with the holidays so we could utilize the new feature (which we appreciate!). We also like to block holidays that are still being determined so we can be prepared (for example, deciding whether we'll be closed all day on New Year's Eve, or just half the day…

  18. We LOVE the enhancements to statistics. On the emailed report, could "tomorrow" be an option? We print and prep the rooms and equipment report at close for the crew that opens.

  19. Patrons can currently change the default start time for room bookings. For example, our library limits study room booking start and end times to each hour on the hour (e.g. 9am, 10am, etc). However, the room booking software allows patrons to change the times to increments within an hour, like 9:05am-11:05am. This lets them meet their 2-hour limit, but effectively blocks off the room for 3 hours. Please disable this on the public side.

  20. We'd like the ability to disallow patrons from cancelling bookings after the start time. Crafty patrons cancel their booking near the end time, then sumbit a new booking to get around the daily limit.
