Although our patrons have access to the Polaris PowerPAC and Vega Discover catalogs, offering the option to delete an item from their reading history directly in Vega Discover would provide a streamlined user experience for our Vega patrons.

This would be great! I'm preparing for our annual literary celebration and creating showcases for our keynote speaker and featured authors/illustrators. It would be great to include their presentation information directly on the showcase.

Offer an option within the showcase to 'display in search results'. Bonus: offer keywords to attach to the search.

We recently migrated ILS (Sierra > Polaris) and moved to Vega Discover Premium.
A patron reached out to us because they were able to locate DVD/Bluray records that had subtitles when we had the Sierra WebPAC, but it does not seem to be available in Vega Discover Premium.
I was able to use the advanced search for video recordings for the subject: hearing impaired the in the Polaris PowerPAC, though we're trying to keep our patrons in one catalog.

Agree. We just migrated to Polaris and Vega Discover. Some of our patrons had previously used usernames in Sierra, and those transferred with the data.
Since staff are not able to see or modify those usernames in Polaris Leap (only a few have access to the client: primarily Tech Services and SysAdmin), our frontline staff can't provide support. Patrons would need to use the Polaris PAC to create/modify their usernames.
We aren't planning to use the PAC at this time and haven't setup any of the branding/features.
I could provide a recent patron quote, if that would be helpful.

Another vote for access to edit the text on the Passcode Reset page.
We're trying to consistently use PIN instead of Passcode. I've adjusted all the iterations of Passcode that I can find in the Manage translations to use PIN within the blue quotes.
Unfortunately, I don't see the Passcode reset screen's text in the list. Is it possible to apply our Manage Translations file to this page?

We use a 3rd party vendor, and when we go live (less than 2 weeks!), we will link to pay the fees through an in-library kiosk, the Vega catalog and our OCLC Capira Mobile app (no payments run directly with staff).
It would be incredibly helpful for our patron facing staff to see in Polaris how the patron paid.

We have many patrons who have been requesting easy access to the NYT bestsellers through the catalog. A homepage showcase would be excellent. Bonus points for providing the showcase embed code to also post to our library website!

This would be a very helpful feature. Screen space is at a premium, and some of our collection names can be long as we use the term Young Adult Fiction.
A related customization feature for call number/collection: Requesting the options to display the collection code and call number for the record (Always show, only when copies are available, never show, etc).
At this time, the listings with no copies available don't show the call number or collection in the at-a-glance.
"Find a Copy" only shows call number.
Clicking on location will show the item level collection.
Scenario: Our Book Club Kits (bags) are TOM as Kits (nearest available option for consistency across Polaris Leap, PowerPAC and Vega), along with many other records that are also Kits (thus not conducive to renaming in Vega). Without prominently displaying the collection, the Vega patron may misinterpret this listing if they don't click on a specific location.
