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

Staff Side 'Add Bookings' Customization
- Add the ability to change the behavior of the Add Bookings page to default to a Guest booking rather than a Member booking. We typically don't require patrons to provide a library card number when registering for a program.
- Add the ability to make the Booking Note & Staff Name field not required. This may be confusing for staff and isn't something we would need every time staff register a patron for an event.

Post-booking approval
For the sake of enforcing use limit policies, it would be helpful to be able to approve bookings after they have already happened. With few staff who are able to approve requests, sometimes we don't get to approve requests before the room has already been used. To be able to approve requests after a booking (with the option not to notify a patron since there's no need) would then help the staff when reviewing future requests in the same limitation period. To help clarify, we have a playroom that is available by reservation, but walk-up use is welcomed and counts…

Private Categories on Event Exports
Looking for a separate column on event exports excel sheet (run using the Statistics module on Vega Program) for private program categories. Currently, event exports only have "Categories" that shows the categories available to the public under "Event Categories." Attaching screenshots to show both the Event Categories and Private Categories we have when entering a program and then the Event Export that only has the one Categories section. We have a separate "Private Categories" section when entering new programs that are not viewable on event exports when looking at the List of All Events Tab. We are looking for more…

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.

Make the reservation/availability bar more functional?
Would it be possible to put in a time range for a reservation using the availability bar? Rather than clicking it to pick your start time, then choosing the end time via drop down, is there a way to click through the time blocks to mark your end time as well? Also related, is there a way to make the availability bars visible when you're booking multiple events?

Add a disclaimer about machine language translations.
This would be helpful if an inaccurate translation is missed by staff and is flagged by the public.

Use patron record number as the primary system ID rather than barcode
It appears the system might be using patron barcode as the primary ID for patron records rather than patron record number. This is problematic when a patron loses their barcode and it needs to be replaced or, as mentioned in another idea, the patron has multiple barcodes for some reason. This makes it difficult for a patron to keep track of their past programs, as well as their waitlists, which no longer function if their barcode changes. Would also probably require a way to merge records that exist with the same patron record number.

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.

Allow multiple rooms/buildings across program sessions
We frequently have programs with multiple sessions that fall into one of two categories: repeated programs happening in different buildings, or multi-session programs that need to be done in different rooms across sessions.
It would be helpful if Vega Program could default each new session to the same room as the first existing session, but allow staff to change the room (or building) for each session.
Currently, we must either split up these sessions (different buildings, same program) causing patrons to get confused and register twice for what is essentially the same program, or we have to put a generic…

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.

Waitlist for guests
For certain programs only allow the registration open for library card holders and add guests to a waitlist until a certain number before the event happens. At that time, move the guests automatically to the registration if there are still seats available.
1 voteWhen creating an event, library staff can set a date to open registration to guests. This allows their library patrons the opportunity to book programs first.

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.

Categorize Rooms to Help with Filtering and Hiding from Staff
We'd like to see an option to categorize rooms to help with filtering them or hiding them. For example, we have both public access rooms and staff-only rooms. However, not all staff can book the staff-only rooms, as they are only responsible for making public bookings. By categorizing the rooms, we'd hope to see all rooms of a certain category together and be able to collapse categories in the list view. Even further, it would be great to be able to hide categories from staff that are unneccesary to them and clutter their view.

Edit info on past bookings
We'd love the option to edit patron information on bookings that have already concluded. Because patrons don't have to enter their full names when utilizing the guest booking feature, it would help us to be able to add that information retrospectively in order to better facilitate approvals for future use.
