1. Zone tab colors

   Make the current zone tab you clicked easier to see by having the tab color change (or become darker) when the user clicks on it. This way you know what zone you are working in. Currently it is hard to see the little triangle pointer under the tab.

2. Allow for work orders to be placed against MMS IDs

   It would be helpful if we could apply a work order against ALL the items attached to an MMS ID in a single go, rather than go through Actions against each item. I know it's possible to create a set and do it that way but it would be much easier to be able to click on a work order option and have that applied to a whole list of items.

3. Different authority icon

   In authority control instead of having the looking glass icon, an icon that indicated the heading was Full or not would be better.

4. View It in Alma for physical resources

   In Aleph we were able to CTRL + O and see the physical item's record in the OPAC immediately. Now our metadata staff have to wait until the Alma pipe to Primo has run to view their record in Primo. Would it be possible to add a View It, like in the case for e-resources, for physical resources also.

5. Change Repository Search "Contains" to drop-down to enable searching "Contains Phrase", "Starts With", and "Equals"

   In the repository search simple search, the only search operator you can use when searching available indexes is contains (e.g., FIND all titles WHERE title CONTAINS ____.

   We would like to request that the CONTAINS operator be turned into an advanced-style dropdown menu to enable searches like this:

   FIND all titles WHERE title CONTAINS PHRASE ____
   FIND all titles WHERE title STARTS WITH ____
   FIND all titles WHERE title EQUALS _____

   In many cases, an advanced search is not required, it is simply the contains operator that needs to be modified, and performing an advanced search just to modify the contains operator is cumbersome.

6. exporting records retrieved in ALMA to (for example) the RIS-format for collection development purposes

   Management of larger sets of bibliographic information is required for collection development purposes. Excel downloads are not (yet) compatible with regular reference management software (e.g. EndNote), and lack the options reference management software do offer (filtering, editing, managing, outputting). So exporting to for example the RIS-format of records retrieved in ALMA would make this data management possible.

7. Ability to create a Titles set from a logical physical item set

   Currently it's not possible to create a Titles set from a logical Physical Items set. Instead, one must first create an itemized set from the logical set, then create a Titles set. We would love to see the option to create a Titles set from a logical physical items set.

9. Flag required in Itemised Sets for adding other items at the same holding

   The ability in the Itemised Set facility to add contents from a file to a Set is useful, but we feel it could be made more useful still.

   We require something whereby, having read the contents of a list of item barcodes, Alma will find any other items based at the same holding as a given item on the list and add those to the Itemised Set as well.

   There is a very definite need for this functionality for any Alma user tasked with working through Sets created from lists of item barcodes in order to identify items requiring withdrawal. Typically they may wish to keep one copy of the title in question and withdraw all of the others; it therefore clearly makes greater sense for all copies of that title to be in the list at once, so as to help the user identify how many copies they can safely withdraw.

   The workflow I envisage is essentially:

   1) Alma user opts to create an Itemised Set,

   2) They click on the folder icon for Add Contents From File To Set and select the usual sort of text file full of item barcodes, clicking on Open,

   3) The file name appears in the Add Contents From File To Set window. At the point at which the user clicks on Add Members To Set, a pop-up box appears, asking them whether they want to add all other items at the same holding to the Set (Yes/No).

10. Reminders for Sets

    The Reminders for Bibliographic Records functionality premiered in the November Alma release is already proving most useful (in such instances as applying reminders to check things like eBook records when their portfolios expire X months or years in the future).

    What would be at least as useful, however, is if this functionality were to be made available for Sets as well, e.g. when a Set reaches a specific number of months or years of age, a reminder can be set up requesting the owner to check whether it's still required and to consider deleting it.

    Effective housekeeping of Sets (and the removal of superannuated Sets) has arguably become a bigger issue ever since the drop-down options for Sets were reduced to just Created By and Name a few months previously.

11. Add Editions link-type facility to All Titles Persistent Search results

    When searching for a specific barcode using All Titles Persistent Search and the search result appears on screen, would it be possible for there to be a link next to the Edition statement (i.e. the 250 field contents) which links to the results for all editions of the title in question?

    In addition, would it be possible for that link to the results for all editions to appear in the search results when Physical Items Persistent Search is used instead, even though there is of course no Edition statement shown in such instances?

    There are many instances during the course of a working day in which our Capacity Management staff will need to work with a specific item (relocating, withdrawing or putting a note on it) within the context of it being one (of possibly more than one) item for the given edition. They don’t always need to know in the first instance whether there are other editions of that title also maintained by us, but may need to do so as a result of the work they perform with that initial item.

    Having a link present in perpetuity seems more convenient than having to reprise the original persistent search.

13. Make Brief Levels more visible

    Now that we have defined our local Brief Levels for Alma bib records, it would be very helpful if we could view the Brief Levels more readily. For example, it would be helpful to include the Brief Level as a column in spreadsheets of exported search results. And it would be very helpful to see the Brief Levels in the Receiving work bench to help with initial sorting of incoming material and identifying items most appropriate for rapid cataloging at the point of receipt.

    In advanced searching in Alma NZ for physical titles, have results say: Advanced searching not performed for physical materials in NZ Currently, results from this impossible search only indicate "No records were found," making it look like the NZ does not have anything, when in fact there may be many.

Example: condition title= Wyoming, and condition material type= Map in the NZ results in nothing, but there are over 2k hits if searching All titles instead of Physical titles, some of which are tangible.

15. Add indicators to IZ/NZ/CZ tabs in Repository Search results to show presence of bib records and local holdings

    It would save time in cataloging, acquisitions, ILL, and reference if the IZ/NZ/CZ tabs included some sort of indication that there are bib records matching the search and, where applicable, local holdings attached to those records.

    My thought is a simple count added after the tab title -- local holdings / bibs.

    Additionally it would be helpful to shade or highlight the active tab, making it very quick to recognize in which zone you are working.

    Finally, on NZ and CZ results lists, it would be helpful 1) highlight the local holdings so that they stand out more obviously in a list sorted by rank, title, etc., and 2) to offer the option to sort bibs with local holdings at the top.

    With these changes in place, staff would not need to click through all three tabs to check for bibs and holdings which may or may not exist. If the tab shows 0, you can skip it. Likewise, if the total NZ + CZ holdings do not equal the IZ holdings, the cataloger know that there are either IZ bibs that have not been shared to the NZ (IZ count higher) or holdings that are actually managed at the NZ level and not appearing in the IZ (NZ+CZ count higher).

    I have attached a file with actual and edited screen shots to demonstrate this concept.

16. Expand options for repository search for item barcodes

    It would be nice to be able to have more options in the advanced search when searching by barcode. Currently, the only options are "contains keywords", "contains phrase", and "is empty".

    It would be useful to be have the same dropdown options that are available when searching on other identifiers, such as the MMSID. Specifically, the >, >=, <, <= options would be very useful.

    Sample situation: I would like to create a set of all items that have not been moved to our new barcode system. Our new barcodes have 8 digits, and our old barcode numbers only have six digits. To create this set, I wanted to be able to do a search for all barcodes with a value <10000000, but that was not an option.

    It would be nice to be able to have more options in the advanced search when searching by barcode. Currently, the only options are "contains keywords", "contains phrase", and "is empty".

    It would be useful to be have the same dropdown options that are available when searching on other identifiers, such as the MMSID. Specifically, the >, >=, <, <= options would be very useful.

17. Better presentation of Resource types in limiting search, left panel

    I have a suggestion related to Resource types, limiting search. Sometimes the group Undefined is too big. If you search "Mozart" (in NZ-instance), there are more than 2000 Undefined. Most of these are component parts. An improvement would be to use:
    Component parts (Text): LDR pos. 06 = a AND LDR pos. 7 = a
    Component parts (Musical sound): LDR pos. 06 = j AND LDR pos. 7 = a
    It is easy and you don't have to consider 008 here.

    If you need any changes here, you may do so, or let me suggest something.
    Maybe it is not necessary to differentiate between text and music? In that case you may make an even simpler search:
    Component parts: LDR pos. 7 = a

    (For the time being, In-analytics (I.e. Component Parts) are presented as "Books - Undefined" (these are journal articles or articles in books)
    Musical sound tracks are presented as "Music - Undefined". This is not so good.

18. repository search sort by collection name (asc/desc)

    Ability to sort searches in the repository by collection name (ascending & descending) when searching by titles & portfolios. This sort feature is only available right now when searching for electronic collections; this feature, when turned on, applies to the other searches you can do (i.e. electronic portfolios) but only if one searches by collection first. Would like the sort feature to be available for all searches in the repository, not just for collections.

19. Expand the menu for actions on records in the NZ repository search results to include "link" in addition to "edit" and "order"

    Currently, in order to link to a record you have to click on the title for the full record and then click on the "link" button. Putting the option to 'link' to a record in the initial search results would save some maneuvering of the mouse and a click.

20. Ability to link POs which were not originally linked to a bib. record to a new bib. record.

    We would like to be able to link POs which were not originally linked to a bib. record to a new bib. record so that they can be rolled over.
