Templates save booking settings
It would be great if templates saved the bookings setting. Right now, all our templates default to "Bookings required" even if they were created or even updated to say "No bookings required." It's an extra step to remember to turn this setting off when using templates.

Color coding by room
Some libraries want to use the color coding for rooms/locations instead of categories.

Unpublish events still in the pending approval stage
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…

Show Event's Categories on Page
It would be nice if on an individual event page, it displayed the category/categories the event belongs to. We have age categories for all of our events, but when we link to the event it's hard to tell what age it's for at a glance.
If we use the Min-Max age feature when creating an event, which displays the recommended age beautifully, it also adds an undesirable required question where the registrant has to tell us their age when they sign up - confusing for parents who are bringing their kid to a story time with an age range of…

notify me when registration opens
If registration opens on a certain date in the future, we'd appreciate a "Remind me when registration opens" option, so the interested party would get a notification on the day registration opens to register themselves.

Alert When Patrons/Guests Register for the Same Event Again
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…

Staff side: Search Events - include an option for ALL under Status
On the Home screen, the Search Events function allows us to limit to a number of status options, but there is no option to search all status types.
Having an "All" option which returns every status type would be beneficial to staff event tracking workflows by allowing them to run a single search for all status types rather than separate searches for "All Approved Events", "Pending Approval", "Cancelled" etc.

Display Categories on Individual Event Page
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.

Hierarchy for Category Colors
We'd like to use the color coding options, but for events with multiple categories, the color that displays seems to be whichever is first alphabetically. It would be nice to choose which categories take priority or to have a default color and only display a different color for specific categories. It would be most useful for us to have ages as a separate identifier that could be color-coded and have priority.

Google Maps Opt In/Out in Event
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.

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.

Add Name to Waitlist
It would significantly both the patron and the programmer experience if patrons could enter their name when they sign up for the waitlist. Programmers often don't know who is associated with an email, and sometimes we have to know the names. Additionally, patrons find the waitlist confusing without entering their name.

"Log statistics" feature - Ability to add a title field and edit submitted entries
It's a great feature, but seems a little bare-bones at the moment? It would be fantastic to add a title field so that we know what program these additional attendance numbers are coming from, and also to be able to edit logged hours in case there's a mistake. Thank you!

"alt text"
An alt text field is needed for images uploaded to events in Program. With the new ADA accessibility rules taking effect in April, this is a vital aspect; without it, libraries simply can't use images or else they'll be out of compliance with the law.

Bulk edit events
Libraries would like to have the capability to edit bulk events that are not part of a series. For example, if the Auditorium has an issue and is unavailable, move all the events to a different area.

Notify Selected Staff of Room Booking Cancellations
It would be great to be able to set certain staff to be notified when a patron cancels a room reservation.

Adding category information to the spaces available and allowing them to be searched based on the category. i.e Auditorium , Meeting Hall.

Limit patron registration
It would be really nice if Vega Program would prevent a patron from registering for multiple events occurring at the same time, since they cannot possibly attend more than one at a time. An alert - via email, text (when available), or pop-up that either 1) the registration cannot be completed because they are registered for another event or 2) offer to cancel their existing registration and complete the current one.

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…

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.
