Develop a ‘sticky’ last search feature in the Repository search
We have staff in multiple roles, who use the repository search feature as part of their daily workflow. These staff run many repository searches a day, however, although people within a particular work area routinely use the same search parameters, across different work areas staff use a range of ‘standard’ search parameters.
We like to request that ExLibris to develop a ‘sticky’ last search feature in the Repository search. This would mean that Alma would ‘remember’ the way the Repository search was last configured, based on the user login. Our idea is that Alma would ‘remember’ a user’s most frequent Repository search settings (eg barcode search in physical item level search by Barcode OR Electronic Portfolio search by publisher) as well as the most frequent search settings of other users, which may be quite different.
We see an association between this idea and the http://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/308173-alma/suggestions/14876577-repository-search-by-call-no idea
