Bring back the date slider to the Publication Date facet
We'd love the option to use a date slider in addition to manually inputting start and end dates for the Publication Date facet. The slider is so much simpler for users, as having to think up very specific dates can seem arbitrary, and takes more time to execute. You've indicated that the histogram in previous versions of the Summon UI caused performance issues; we don't necessarily need a histogram. Just a slider!

Create collections in Summon
It would be great to be able to create collections by selecting resources directly in Summon, even if we don't have Alma.
Collections could be displayed in the same way as in Primo :

Customise New Search button
We would like to be able to customise the url of the 'New Search' button, so that it links to our own Library Search home page, with embedded Summon search, rather then the default Summon instance.
Currently, we only have the option to use the Home link, via the institutional logo, to link back to our Library Search home page, which is not accepted practice, as this should link to the institution's home page.
We can currenetly use the 'Custom Link' option, but this is not user-friendly, as the link appears in the banner (and hamburger menu), rather than next…

Enhanced Search Functionality
Natural Language Processing (NLP): Integrate more advanced NLP to better understand complex queries and user intent, even with variations in phrasing.
Query Expansion and Suggestion: Improve automated query expansion to include synonyms, related terms, and spelling variations. Offer more intelligent search suggestions as the user types.
Handling of Complete Citations: Ensure more accurate retrieval of specific items when users input full or partial citations.
Advanced Search Options: Make advanced search options more prominent and user-friendly, allowing for precise filtering by date, language, resource type, and more.

Broken link button
Add a "Broken link" button to every Summon search result, so users can easily report errors or unexpected results to the library. The workflow should be as "low effort" as possible for the user.

Add "Cited by" and "Cites" links to the article "Quick Look" and saved folder
Right now the only way to view or use the "Cited by" and "Cites" options is from the search results list. When you look at the "Quick Look" of the article or save it and then look in the saved folder, these options are no longer present. Adding "Cited by" and "Cite" to the "Quick Look" and saved folder views of an article would enhance usability.

Improve the copy function in Research Assistant
The copy function in Research Assistant copies the abstracts of all the 5 articles, some of which can be very long abstracts. Links to the record will be more suitable instead. E.g. Summon permalink to the record.

Enable Current Content Mapping to be Downloaded for SoA
As a Summon over Alma customer, we are unable to download our current mapping. When we submit a ticket to get the information, it may take over a month to get the information. Making this available to download from the Summon Admin tool would streamline things for customers and support.
Example Case: 07955367

Make Research Assistant custom URL more flexible
We can currently add a custom link to the Research Assistant, but we cannot change the link text, it is always about how to cite AI content. Could the link text be also customizable so that we can link to other relevant content like our institution's AI guidelines, etc?

Month/Year format for custom dates
Have the option of Month/Year as an acceptable format for custom dates. This is often how journals are dated.

Offer automated holdings management for VLeBooks
VLeBooks is likely to be an increasingly popular e-book supplier. Automated holdings management, meaning new titles added to a library's holdings are added to Summon without the library having to take any action, would be very welcome.

More flexibility for the Reserve Button
We would like to suggest an enhancement request to allow more flexibility for the Reserve Button link to allow its link to target a specific holds/reservation functionality for a specific record ID.
In particular, we use the Koha Library Managament System so would greatly welcome an API integration between Summon and Koha, similar to the Sierra via Summon integration, as detailed here:

Add a language toggle to the Summon Research Assistant
We need to provide our users with a language toggle on our web pages to switch between English and French. We've noticed that users can't switch from English to French and vice versa once they're on the Summon Research Assistant page. Users have to switch languages on the Summon page, or click on the Library Search function to return to the Summon search page before they go to the Summon Research Assistant page.
Can you please add a language toggle/switch to the Summon Research Assistant?
