This is something our libraries run across with large print books but also audiobooks and other materials with additional information in the 020. For staff trying to work in Leap, they edit the bib record by adding an 020 with the same ISBN minus the additional information so it can be used in the POLI, which is very time consuming. We would appreciate this field being able to accept more characters (150 would be great).

We would really like the ability to have bib bulk change templates. Catalogers frequently make the same changes, such as adding local subject headings or adding/editing fixed fields, and being able to make use of a template to automatically have those changes occur instead of going through all the steps of entering the information would be much more efficient. Having access to these templates as part of the import profile would be a huge benefit. Even though there are other programs where this can be done, such as MARCEdit, being able to do this as part of the import process directly in Polaris streamlines the workflow. Mistakes would not be an issue if using bib bulk change templates either.

Our libraries have thousands of notes to migrate. We would like to switch to Dated Notes, but this is a daunting task for them. They will need to manually copy/paste them into a new Dated Note, which is quite laborious. Due to the nature of these notes, there are very few that are the same wording to take advantage of bulk adding. If they could be migrated, it would be great if the Note date was migrated as well. With manually moving them they will have the current date.

We need an alert as well. Our libraries will not implement Dated Notes until there is some indication that there is a note without having to click into it.

We are looking at implementing Dated Notes but that block/note for merged patrons would need to be in the Dated Notes first. The idea of an administrative setting to choose where to add the merge note is preferable, so that if we switch that information would only exist in one place. If we disable the classic notes and that migrated note appears there (whether alone or in addition to the dated notes), the "Patron has notes" block still appears, and staff would not be able to access that classic note to delete the content which would remove that block unless they log into the client, which not all circulation staff have access to.

This came up recently as our libraries are using Leap more for cataloging. Being able to bulk add, delete and replace values in the 006 and 007 is essential for regular cataloging, but also for cleanup. We need to be able to bulk add a new 006 or 007, and also replace an existing values to a new one. For example, changing the 006 from a Three dimensional object to a Kit, or changing the 007 from Text to Videorecording. Currently you can only change values within the same form or category of material.
