  1. Rapido to parse all volume formats for multivolume works

    Currently, when requesting volumes of multivolume works, the Rapido tile can only parse the following volume formats from the item description:
     
    "3" (digits only)
    "v.3" (no space)
    "v. 3" (with space)
     
    This affects the Refine Offer function: if the patron inputs a string that Rapido cannot parse (for example, "XII", "Jan", "Bd. 3" as written in the item description), it disregards that volume information. This usually gives a positive result (terms are displayed disregarding the volume's availability), places the request on title level (whole multivolume work) without linking the wanted volume (item) to the Rapido request. In such…

  2. Show lending library on Receive Item screen

    Sometimes multiple libraries fill a request for an item but you cannot see who the system thinks supplied the item without opening the request. Please add the lending library to the Receive Item screen so that you can ensure you are receiving the correct book from the correct library.

  3. Don't require a pickup location for digital (article and book chapter scan) requests

    If the Resource Sharing Request Type is Digital (article or book chapter), and the request will be delivered digitally, the request form should not require a pickup location. This is confusing to users and meaningless for the workflow.

    For many single-campus/single-library institutions, this is not a problem, because a default library can be selected.

    For institutions with multiple libraries, where users are not assigned a default library in the patron record, this is an embarrassing and clunky problem.

  4. Allow other roles to configure the Resource Sharing Library "Temporary Inactive for borrowing/lending" settings

    Currently, only users with the "general systems administrator" role can configure the resource sharing library "temporary inactive for lending" and "temporary inactive for borrowing" settings.

    It would be helpful if this privilege could be added to another role so that members of our resource sharing team can manage this without having full system administrator privileges. This would allow them to easily manage these settings to meet the department needs.
