  2. Automatically suppress bib records generated from the Order It! Amazon plug in.

    Allow the option to automatically suppress bib records created from the Order It! Amazon plugin. Additionally, allow the option to have the titles of the generated brief bibs typed in all capital letters as per standard practice for acquisitions brief bibs. Brief bibs typed in all caps help visually distinguish them from full bibliographic records.

  3. Borrowing requests: comment (from Primo) should not be transferred to request note field but to the Note field

    The content of the comment (from Primo) was transferred to the "Request Note" field (=Request Attributes).
    We didn't want that to happen.
    The content should go into the "Note" field (=Resource Information).

  4. License field for Purchase Order Line value

    We would like a total values field on the Summary tab of a License that gives us the total cost of all the PO Lines which that license covers. This would tell us quickly the expenditure value of each license in Alma and enable us to prioritise license workflows by expenditure value.

  5. Analytics: Get POL type for the additional PO Lines

    In E-inventory, we can get the POL Type for the main POL for a portfolio and we can get the portfolio's additional POLs, but we can't get the POL types for the additional POLs.

  7. Need more facets electonic collection search

    When searching for items in the CZ, I find the left side facets and sort by options to be too limited.
    Would love a way to sort electronic collections by most recently added to CZ.
    for example, I am looking to see if any new gale collections were added so I can activate them. There is no way to sort by this, and there is no facet on the left to limit to non-activated collections. Adding a left facet to search for In IZ or activated/non-activated collections would be very helpful.

  8. bluk edit vendor information

    There is some information in vendor records which could be the same for all vendors, such as library, vendor type, whether to make vendors active or inactive, delivery claim information, etc. It would be great if there were a way to edit these details for multiple vendors at one time rather than going through each vendor to change their information.

  9. ADD RECORDS TO SETS

    Be able to add selected records to a set that's already created. There is often multiple ways to find records that are part of a group. It seems there's no ability to do a search and select records to add to a set that's already in existence. This could also help if multiple people are trying to find a large number of records that could belong to one set for export or modification.

  10. Access Student Photos Securely

    Currently, user photos are only available via a web link https://myurl/photo/studentidentifier.jpg. This means that all student photos need to be available over the internet which in the UK is a Data Breach. There needs to be a way that only the student in question or an authorised staff member can see the photo. It is not possible to use 3rd party software like Azure to do this as the cross-site scripting protection gets in the way.

  11. Enable forcing barcode number for new items

    When cataloguing a new item, we wish to force cataloguers to add barcode number before save. If some libraries do not want that, forcing the barcode field could be optional.

  12. Retrieve metadata available in MARC-XML also in JSON

    When requesting "bib", all metadata should be available as JSON. Most fields are by now represented as a MARC-XML string, bundled into a field called "anies".

  13. Improve integration between 'Place on hold' in Rialto and Tasks widget in Alma

    If the 'Place on hold' option is ticked when placing an order in Rialto, there is no notification in the Tasks widget in Alma to let Library staff know when an item has arrived. This means we are unable to prioritise the processing of those newly arrived, requested items. If we were to use 'Place on hold' in Rialto, then we wouldn't find out an item had been requested until we happened to scan it in. We would like an integration between Rialto and the requests functionality putting in place to make it apparent to Alma users when items received…

  14. Include a web service for renewing all loans at once in the API Users and Fulfilment

    At the moment, POST /almaws/v1/users/{userid}/loans/{loanid} must be called individually for each loan. This is very time-consuming, especially in large accounts, and the general API limits must also be observed. It would be conceivable, for example, to introduce the loanid ALL, similar to GET /almaws/v1/bibs/{mmsid}/holdings/{holdingid}/items for the holdingid.

    The "Retrieve Items list" has a feature, where ALL can be used for the holdingid parameter to retrieve all items from all holdings. In a similar way we could use POST /users/{userid}/loans/ALL to renew all loans.

    Using POST /almaws/v1/users/{user_id}/loans as the most obvious solution is…

  15. Display PO Line Notes entries in Analytics with the newest notes first, to ensure their inclusion within the character limit

    Currently the 'PO Line Notes' field in the Alma Analytics 'Funds Exchange' subject area, displays the content of all note entries attached to a particular PO Line as a single block of text, starting from the earliest-dated note and ending with the latest-dated note. However, as the field's display in Analytics is limited to 4000 characters, this means that the most recent notes are omitted from the report for any PO Lines that are particularly longstanding or have particularly copious notes. This is true both for the report as displayed within the Analytics interface, and for a version exported to…

  17. Allow sort configuration in Primo (VE and NDE) brief results view and Collections View

    Currently as far as is known, search results and collections items can only be sorted by year. Multiple records with the same year creation date cannot be further sorted.
    See https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Primo/Product_Documentation/Primo/Technical_Guide/010The_PNX_Record/080The_Sort_Section

    "[The Sort section] is not applicable to Primo VE environments. Only the Display, Facets, and Search sections are configurable in Primo VE"


    I would like to be able to sort a set of records by specific date (day, month, year) in any list of multiple records (collection with items view, basic brief records view, etc.).

    This could be based on whatever date structure is necessary (yyyymmdd, etc.) and could…

  19. Enhance Support for Non-University Libraries

    Issue: Alma is heavily focused on academic libraries and electronic resources, making it less suitable for cultural institutions or libraries managing physical, archival, or unique materials.
    Improvement:
    Develop specialized modules for archival and special collections, including better support for preservation treatments, valuation, and non-MARC metadata (e.g., Dublin Core).
    Create configurable workflows for physical resource management that are less acquisition-centric, addressing the needs of state or special libraries.
    Expand Community Zone metadata to include more diverse formats and sources relevant to non-academic libraries.
    RapidILL Synergy: Extend RapidILL’s support for non-traditional resources (e.g., datasets, 3D objects) to align with Alma’s expanded metadata…
