I would like to suggest a related relevancy improvement that is maybe asking for the same thing. When ordering/ranking exact title matches in the search results, don't consider the subtitles.
For example, “From scratch: a memoir of love, Sicily, and finding home” by Tembi Locke - if someone searches under All for “from scratch,” they first see less popular (based on how many items we have in the system) resources just titled "From Scratch" before the ones with titles that contain “from” and “scratch” and other words, then eventually followed by the one titled “From Scratch: [subtitle].” It accidentally gives weight to the absence of a subtitle over the existence of one, even though a regular patron would usually just consider the bit before the colon to be the title.
Another example: “Maid: hard work, low pay, and a mother’s will to survive” by Stephanie Land. If you only search for “maid,” the record with the full subtitle appears on page 3 after “Maid Marian,” “Death of a Maid,” etc. In some cases (such as this), the digital records from Overdrive don't include the subtitle and don't roll up. The eBook/eAudio result therefore appears at the top of the search results, which is fine except that it makes it look like we only have digital formats of that work. We would like the resource to still be at the top of the search results if we add the subtitle and make it roll up with the physical formats.

Or make the buttons float in the same spot in the screen as you scroll so they can be used at any point on the page.
