Embed Advanced Search on Browse/Journal search pages
We have had requests to include the Advanced Search on the Browse and A-Z pages. If one wants to run an Advanced Search one has to return to a new (basic search) search and then click Advanced Search. I had submitted a SF case but the response was that this is not a functionality available in Primo. We believe this would improve usability.

A-Z eBook functionality (similar to eJournals A-Z + databases A-Z)
We're in the process of implementing Alma/Primo (at present we're Summon clients). Per Inna Ilinskaya, there is no equivalent ejournals/databases A-Z functionality for ebooks in Primo. This is something that our users have become accustomed to in using Summon. Inna recommended that we post this as an enhancement.

Sorting in My Bookshelf
Currently My Bookshelf doesn't offer any functionality to allow you to order items.
It would be useful to be able to order items e.g. by Title, Author, Added, Type etc.

Display Interface Display Label
Have the ability to configure the Display Interface Display Logic label to display if an item is loanable, library use only, etc based on the patron who logins in or a guest viewer.
Currently by default the labels will show 'loanable' in the Display Interface Display Logic configuration. It's only possible to configure the label for all guests.

Add Jump to Last & Specific Page Options to Primo Search Results Paging Bar
Our users are asking for the option to jump to the last page of the search results in Primo. They would also like to get to a specific page number in the Primo search results paging bar by typing the number in there. First and last page options are basic functionalities of pagers and users expect those.
301 votesThis idea was reviewed and discussed in the past also as part of the NERS evaluation. In the last few years we did few improvements to the pagination area to increase the visibility of the results. We do support now option to jump to specific page number up to the limitation of number of results to show, however the ability to jump to the last page is not in our roadmap.
therefore we have decided to close this idea and release your votes.

Adding reset button to the volume filter in the GetIt tab
The filter in the GetIt tab allows users to filter the display of the volumes by year, volume or description.
It would be helpful to add a reset button that will reset the values chosen and display all values available.
Currently, in order to reset the values in the fields chosen the patron must click on the arrow for the drop-down menu of each field (year, volume, description) and choose the value ALL23 votesHello All,

Add Sort by Date to Favorites
Currently the sort options in the Favorites list are: Date added, Author, or Title.
Our users would like to be able to sort by date-newest like they can for search results. Many users are interested in most recent material so date-newest is a valuable sort option for them.15 votesHello All,

Table of Contents Display
It would be nice to have the table of contents field (505) formatted in a more user friendly manner within PrimoVE. In Voyager there was a rule that converted the ' -- ' to <LF><CR> (which is 'Enter').
I have attached examples of how it displays in our Voyager OPAC vs PrimoVE.

Ability to restrict number of characters displayed in Description field
In the Detailed Results, it would be good to have the ability to configure the Description field so that it displays only a certain number of characters by default, while also allowing users to expand the field to get the full description (similar to the way the Summary field in Syndetics Unbound works).

Why is ExL using a large X as a navigation tool in the new UI?
When I first came across this X, I thought it was a coding fault. It does not seem (to me) intuitive that you should click on it to return to the previous screen. A small x on the top RH corner of the open window would make more sense.

We have set up a mixed search results of Primo PCI and EBSCO API. In the Primo new UI, The search results are supposed to show only full-text available materials.

My Account - Previous and Historic Loans
For privacy reasons, many libraries disable the tracking of historic loans.
But when a client is signed into Primo, has items on their account, and goes to the Loans page of My Account, there is a drop-down with an option to choose to display either "active loans" or "previous and historic loans". It is redundant to have that second option there, since we have disabled it. There should be a way in Primo Back Office to hide that.

Display virtual browse by shelf mark as default (without mouse-over)
The new PRIMO Ui virtual browse has changed the display of the shelf mark information. You need to do a mouse-over to see the shelf mark. The suggestion is to make shelf mark display as default (as in the old UI), publication year as an option in back office or maybe have both shelf mark and publication year on different rows (without mouse-over solution).
1. Will all users understand it’s a mouse-over solution here?
2. Will all users be able to display the shelf mark with mouse-over? Compatible with all major web browsers? The mouse over doesn’t work in Safari…6 votesHello All,

Date format for Loans option for DD/MM/YYYY (New UI/Primo VE)
We have Primo VE and the New UI and the date format for loans (in the user's account) defaults to the US MM/DD/YYYY format. We want to be able to chnage this to DD/MM/YYYY but there currently isn't an option to do so.
