  1. faster receipt printing

    Don't use email for all print events. It's too slow for receipts and transit slips at staffed service desks. (Complex anti-spam engines and office365 hosted email typically adds up to a minute to email transit time.)

    Instead, write some local software to act as a print client that talks back to the cloud. That way, you can bridge local networked printers across large sites, back to the cloud in a more timely fashion.

  2. Add "create fee" function to Alma API

    In our future Alma installation we want to offer our users a self service function to purchase interloan access data. Since there's no possibility to integrate this functionality in Alma, we must develop a separate application for this purpose.

    However a fee for the purchasing user has to be created in Alma via the Alma API. Unfortunately there's no such API function ("create fee") available up to now.

    Please implement such a function!

  3. RESTful API for the Alma Link Resolver

    Hello,

    I think it would be great to provide a RESTful API for the Alma Link Resolver which delivers all relevant holding data for titles with physical and electronic holdings in a JSON format.
