Glad to hear that! We'd love to see a smoother procedure for self-registration in Vega--let me know if we can do any testing or help otherwise.

Appreciate that pointer, Gabrielle. Happy to report that it's working with a requirement to include date of birth.
In examining the options at this level, we discovered the option to include a warning that users must be 13 or older to complete the registration form. However, this can only be configured for users who choose "If you are not registered for library services, click or tap here to register now" from within PowerPAC's login link. Our patron registration begins with a link in Vega Discover, which takes them to the page that comes up *after* the patron clicks the above-mentioned link, so unfortunately our users will not see the warning.We'd love a way to be able to deploy this COPPA warning in our Vega Discover setting.

Hi Gabrielle, thanks for pointing that out--we hadn't seen that option. Just requiring a birthdate may be the answer, and it's not a bad piece to require anyway.

Some patron-identifying fields would be helpful in our consortium, particularly Patron code, but possibly patron assigned branch. This would help libraries decide whether to fill the hold and could ultimately lead to better service.

I recently had a request for this from staff in one of our libraries, and discovered there's not an ideal way to add this info, so I would like to see a data well for this.

This idea is outside of our agreed upon Idea Graduation Workflow, but because it was just raised in the most recent rount of MEEP voting, I'm going to keep it open for another cycle. Moving to "Under Review" status.

This idea will be reviewed by the product management team for consideration in an upcoming release.

As an administrator, this would be a huge time-saver. It's very difficult to line up a real-time test of a service like this.

We have a growing number of app users, and it would be a nice additional way for staff to push out quick messages to individual patrons -- "we've been trying to reach you!" "You left your library card here, we're keeping it safe"

The notices in their current form, while nice to look at, are very confusing and we receive constant questions about it.

Borrowers rarely claim they returned something until they receive notification that they've been billed for a Lost item. In Leap, changing a Lost item to a Claim is a very messy and step-heavy process. One has to copy the barcode of the lost item, which opens up the item window. Then come back to the patron record, and check out the lost item again (without checking it in). That removes the lost status and removes the bill, often one of the goals. Once the item is checked out to the patron and appears in the Out/Overdue view, the staff can select the item and make it a Claim. The process of all of this leaves a history of being checked back in and checked out again, which, when viewed by others, makes it seem as though staff was tampering with the record.
By contrast, it's very simple to change a Claim to a Lost item, and the trail is "clean." So please consider providing staff with a clean and simple way to change a Lost item to a Claim.

I can see how this would be useful for any kind of device that requires re-charging.

Our libraries are clamoring for this!

In our consortium, we provide library staff with SimplyReports logins and train them to find their way around creating reports. So all of the different format options Daniel suggested would be all the different ways, potentially, that the many folks aside from admins could want to format their reports. So please, we hope you're planning to improve this.
