    We have had an issue where a patron was overcharged for an item on loan. Being able to import the actual price into the INN-Reach record would prevent this mistake from happening in the future.

    Giving more options to display our unique statuses would be a beneficial enhancement. The current options are too vague and don't seem to provide enough information to patrons, or make it appear that parts of the collection are inaccessible when that may not be true.

    Fixing this issue will improve the interface by making it a more consistent search experience for the user.

    Most libraries base children's programming on the grade level. Having the option to limit by grade would make it easier for both staff and patrons during the program registration process.

    Square would be a great alternative to using PayPal for payments. it gives patrons and libraries more options and is a format that many libraries already use for other purposes..

    This enhancement would make our workflows more efficient and reduce the chance of errors when updating records. We have had this happen multiple times where a staff member unknowingly updated a field in an item record in error when using Rapid Update. It is even worse when the staff member does not realize they added an extra field, and then continues to scan multiple items into Rapid Update. Locking the fields would be a failsafe for this problem.

    It intuitively makes sense to have the search bar ready to go when landing on the page and can help less tech-savvy patrons as well.

    Centralized notices are a must-have for consortia libraries. Patrons would be inundated with messages if we were not able to consolidate. Library communications would just become spam.

    I agree that the patron expectation is most likely the book format. It would make sense to make this the default format, unless the patron chooses another format through filters.

    This sounds like an accessibility issue. It would be helpful if Vega can be customized to display better on smaller screens.

    A dedicated Children's interface should only incorporate Children's materials, especially when linking to other resources. Parents have an expectation that if their child is using a Children's catalog, presumably in the Children's area of the library, that it is safe and appropriate content being linked and recommended.

    Patrons generally don't have their library card barcode numbers handy most of the time. Usernames are more often how they access their information and place holds in our system. Anything that impedes the use of this feature is a detriment to good patron service.

    Patrons should have the ability to control their own reading history, beyond turning it on or off. The ability to delete reading history entries individually makes sense as some items may not be worth keeping in one's history, or some patrons may only choose to keep "liked" items, or only books (not media), etc. It would allow patrons to have some ownership of their reading history, since it is their personal information.

    A title A-Z or Z-A sort option is very useful and can help make searching faster.

    It would make the use of the facets quicker if they were automatically applied as you selected them.

    Being a part of a large consortium, this enhancement would be very helpful and improve the search experience for our patrons. Ideally, it would work best for us if the patron’s home library floated to the top of the location facet, with the option to load more locations.

    It seems like it could be very useful to create a Showcase based off of a specific Create List search in Sierra.

    As a cataloger, it is disappointing not to see much of our "work" displayed in Vega records. It would benefit patrons to have note field information in Vega records to determine if the material is the item that best matches their needs.

    This is a must have as a cataloger. I often use call number, or partial call number, searches to see where we have similar items shelved in our collection. I hope this enhancement will be made possible for Vega.

    Allowing these types of limits would enable us to align Sierra restrictions with our library's policies on maximum number of checkouts per category of item. Currently some of our "limits" are staff controlled which can be confusing and time-consuming. This would make it more efficient because Sierra would impose the limit once the max number of items is reached.

    Any step to help prevent accidental duplicate ordering would be a benefit to libraries who use this ordering method.
