  1. Is there a way that staff who are creating events can preview the event to see what everything looks like before submitting? Currently it seems like you can do this after an event is submitted (prior to publishing) but not when it's a draft.

  2. 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.

  3. We would like to be able to put pictures in our program descriptions, especially for our crafting programs. The header photo is not enough and the measurements for that spot aren't conducive to showing off our crafts/products, etc.

  4. Enable Program's room reservation software to send patrons a unique 6-digit PIN via email for accessing their reserved rooms during their allocated booking period. Open Path offers excellent API documentation and currently provides this feature with two other room reservation software vendors, tailored specifically for libraries. Sending a preemptive email to patrons for room reservations significantly reduces the workload on library staff, as it streamlines the process of granting room access. Moreover, there are opportunities to integrate a 'touchless' experience through third-party applications as well.

  6. Enhance the TV mode so the title of library events displays on the combined view of room bookings and library events.

    For privacy, patron room bookings have the option to show or hide their booking name.

  7. Currently patrons with expired library cards cannot be blocked from registering for an event, even if that event is set to only be open to residents. Our cards expire every 3 years, at which point a resident needs to provide proof of residency to show they still reside in our service area. Without this option patrons could move to a neighboring district but continue to attend programs here that are intended only for residents.

  9. 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…

  10. Can we get an announcement header like Vega Discover has for Program? It would be useful if patrons can see our holiday closing message or emergency announcements if they are in Program.

  11. It would be really helpful if Vega Program would alert a patron or guest when registering for an event that they have already registered for. A checking of information against the current bookings and waiting list.

    An alert such as on screen text or pop-up that says something along the lines of "You have already registered for # spaces at this event. (View <link>My Events</link>) Would you like to continue with your registration?" OR "You have already have # spaces on the waiting list. <View <link> My Events</link>) Would you like to continue with your registration?

    We have this happening…

  12. Previously, other events in matching categories displayed at the bottom of the individual event pages. If they were removed to reduce scrolling, the addition of a category button or something that takes up less room could help patrons find similar events. We find that the "Similarly Named Events" section doesn't accurately reflect related programs.

  13. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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?

  16. 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!

  17. 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…

  20. 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.
