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?

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?

Add help text to Custom Citing AI Content
In the client center settings area for the Research Assistant, it would be helpful to have help text for Custom Citing AI Content field since there's no indication currently whether it's meant to have text or a URL or ?.
Suggest: "Use for the URL of your guide to citing AI-generated content."
But feel free to wordsmith.

Report version of Data Summary Dashboard
We love the Data Summary Dashboard in 360 Services. We use it for IPEDs. The only way to access it is by going into the Client Center manually. So we have to remember to go to this screen precisely on July 1st each year.
It would be great if we could have this summary information automatically reported out monthly to specified email addresses.
(For Data on Demand you can only print out title lists. You have to count them manually.)

Would like to see more options
Great initiative! I'd love to see more options e.g., advanced search filters, integration with X platform etc. This would significantly improve my research workflow.
By the way, for high-quality, plain t-shirts, check out KB Fashion. They're a reliable wholesale clothing supplier with a wide range of options.

We would like to add our IPv6 in the client center
We’d like to request the option to add our IPv6 address in the client center. We’ve been using IPv6 for years, and it would be great if you could support this. It would really help ensure we have the best connectivity possible.
I’ve asked about this before, and I noticed someone else had also suggested it, but the idea was closed. I think revisiting this could be really beneficial for those of us who rely on IPv6 to keep things running smoothly and future-proofed.

Add "Game" to Content Types in Summon
Games have become an important way to teach concepts to GenX, Millennials and GenZ. Both at college level and for use in teacher training, games are a growing component of our collections. Users want to search for games in our collection. This content type would be very useful. In MARC this would translate into 008 character position 33 = g when Leader type is any of the following: o, r, g or k

Retain special characters in 245 subfields
It would be nice if Summon was able to selectively retain special characters in the title mapping field, for example 245$p. It currently strips special characters such as brackets [] from these fields. We use brackets in our $p field for certain reasons and it would be nice if Summon would leave them in when displaying the Title fields.

Make Request button display behavior more configurable
Give libraries a configurable option to suppress the Request Button under certain conditions. For example, the library may not want to present the Request Button to patrons when there are multiple copies (items) attached to a bib record and at least one of the items is Available (on the shelf).
Academic libraries in particular may have a policy of not paging on-shelf materials for patrons.
Allowing libraries to set this kind of display option would improve the user experience as it would be clear to the end user from the outset that the item is not requestable, rather than presenting…
