    Definitely a yes. A history is supposed to provide sufficient information to track down who did what. The current implementation does not.

    Agree with all of the above. We have several collections, which could benefit from this.

    Also, my institution uses a custom Blacklight installation instead of Vega for discovery. Attached is a paper explaining issues we ran into with Arabic scripts. It may provide insight into the issues you are seeing.

    For the Sierra client, the white square issue can sometimes be helped by updating the preferred languages in Windows. In win11: Language settings ->Preferred Languages. Install the relevant language. Reboot Windows and see how it goes.

    We are almost always sitting at the limit. Staff turnover also adds to the difficulty in determining ownership. Being able to see initials and last date and time would be a huge help. The ability to rename would be another win. What may seem like a descriptive name to the original owner may be a mystery to others.

    A variety of reasons can cause a branch to close (and sometimes quite quickly.) This enables the admin to quickly and accurately update the holdings availability for each branch. This provides better service to the patrons.
