Improve "Select all" search results selection
When running a search within Alma, we have the option to "Select All", at which point we can accomplish various tasks like "Push selected to MDE" (for a Physical Titles search), "Add to Itemized Set" and "Create Itemized Set" (for a Physical Items search), etc.
However, when clicking "Select All", this only selects the results on that page of results, which is capped at 50. If you create a search with many pages of results, you would have to take action on each page individually. Clicking "Select All" should actually select all results, not just the results on that page--or at least we should have an additional option that would specifically select results visible on that page.

Would like to see this implemented so that it improves UX.
When we try to select 50 results at a time, UI is intolerably slow.
If there was an option to 'select all records in this result' (for export instead of paging through results, 20 at a time) that would be ideal. -

This is especially relevant for the new All Titles Search interface where you can "Run a Job" on selected records - the job will only run on the first selected 50 (maximum), not the whole result list!

It can also be difficult to keep track of where one is when there are a large number of results/pages. PLEASE, please please add a true select all option!
