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.

Widget accessibility
Is there a way for the featured events widget to pull the dark overlay that exists on the actual event page banner/image instead of just the image? It makes it more accessible and easier to see.

Edit Event Series From the Date of the Edited Event
Can you add an option for editing to update all future events from the date of the edited event? The feature to edit all future from today is very helpful, but when we decide we are going to change a program's time in the fall, for example, it would be nice not to have to delete all those events and rebook or edit them each individually.
For example:
All the Summer story times were created with a Summer Reading Category and image. However, staff set the series to end in December (not summer!).
To fix, staff need to delete and…

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

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…

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.

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…

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.

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.

Patron check in/check out option?
Patrons receive a confirmation that includes a " Manage Booking" box. One of our challenges is that we don't know when a patron has checked in to the room, or if they leave the room early.
Right now, patrons don't have to stop by the desk before or after their reservation. And, if patrons leave early without telling us we can't modify the reservation to free up space for another person. In the new VEGA system could a check - in and check - out button be added to the patron's reservation confirmation?
Something like a button or QR code…

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.
