Hello,
I was about to post an idea and then I red this. SO I voted and I feel it could help if I added my suggestion as a comment here. So thank you Tara for the idea.
here is my text:
Allow an option for patrons to choose a different default pickup location in Encore instead of it defaulting to the patron's home library.
Currently, when a patron is logged into their Encore account and they place a request, the system will default to their home library for the pickup location. If they want to pick up somewhere else, they have to manually choose that option from the dropdown menu.
We want to keep the home library field limited to physical library locations, but allow for alternative pickup options that aren't specifically a home library (community pickup location, or hold lockers, etc). Right now, if you want to pick up somewhere other than your home library, you have to choose from a dropdown option. It is tiresome to have to change this dropdown every time you make a request, especially if you're requesting a large number of items at one time.
