  3. Allow staff to Block out a room for more than 1 day per instance. It would be better if we were able to block out a room for a range of time. Say for example, one of our branches will be undergoing renovations effective June 1 for about 6 months. Some type of bulk block outs would be easier to set.

  4. Do not allow people to book more than two hours at a time in just certain rooms. Do not allow people to book out more than one month/three months in advance.

  5. 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.

  6. It would be nice to be able to add some kind of description or notes for a series page. This would make it easier for patrons to click a series and see what it's all about, since not all off our series are of the same program.

  7. 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…

  8. 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.

  10. We have 30+ rooms and staff use the See All Bookings option to determine a room's daily schedule. However, it does not include the setup and cleanup times in the VP display or downloaded information. Staff can only view the displayed event's start and times. It would be very helpful for our teams doing setup and teardown to have this information on this display or downloaded information.

  11. The green, highlighted date on the appointment-style calendar should be the date available for selection. Instead, it seems to indicate the day before the date of the event?

    Consecutive dates will have some green highlighted dates that are selectable and others that are not.

  14. Libraries should be able to modify email templates for the languages they offer to their patrons.

    As a patron, Program should detect the browser language to determine which language template to use.

    For example, a patron with the browser set to German who registers for an event gets emails from the German templates.

  15. The libraries in a cooperative would find it valuable to get demographic data on who is registering for events. If the person registering for a program is an existing library patron and Vega Program is connecting over to Polaris/Sierra to validate anyway, it ought to be possible to grab demographic data to report on.

    It would also be helpful to get data on people who register for programs but don't have a library account. There could be an "opt-in" checkbox on the registration form to facilitate communicating through Vega Promote campaigns.

  16. When we book a room, we can also book equipment.
    When we create an event, we can book a room, but not reserve equipment, that has to be done separately. We have parent/child rooms. That means that if staff does not book chairs, they may end up with none. It will mean staff have to do twice as much work to make sure they have the equipment that they need.
    Please tie in equipment bookings to the Events calendar, so staff can book everything at once.

  17. We'd like the option to be able to choose to send all registrants straight to waitlist with no bookings allowed on patron level. Then, like the current waitlist, we can manually add them to the registration when we open it up.

  18. Because drafts do not hold rooms, the workaround suggested to us was to leave events in the pending approval stage if they are still drafts by clicking "Submit" instead of "Publish." We now have a long list of pending events that include both drafts and events ready to be reviewed for the calendar. It would be helpful to our staff to be able to "un-approve" events if they are accidentally published instead of submitted.

    To clarify, we use the approvals to signal to our admin that events are ready to be reviewed for publishing. 1) Librarians schedule/submit their events and…
