Avility to customize titles name in 360 KB.
I want to customize titles name as like as "custom DB name" in 360 KB.
Because when authority title is incorrect, we can't search by correct title on EJP till Title Metadata fixed.
And another reason is that sometimes there are a lot of same named titles in KB.38 votesAdminTamar Ganor (Admin, Ex Libris) respondedHello,

Block titles across multiple databases
We want to filter out several publications and publishers from wherever they might appear in our holdings, rather than having to go in and edit the title lists in individual databases in the Offline Date and Status Editor. Once you deselect titles in ODSE, the title list no longer updates automatically and you have to manually update the database lists. We keep seeing the same lousy titles showing up over and over again (especially in various Gale products) and it is a pain to edit them out of every single Gale collection and/or deselect entire databases.

Allow filtering of UnPaywall and Open Access Button results on Link Resolver
360 Link should allow filtering of the Unpaywall and Open Access button results so that libraries can choose which versions to display. This would allow us to display only peer-reviewed results. Both services return version information in their API. Our library would like to use this open access button feature, but we need to be able to filter the results.

Enable DOI search for not CrossRef DOI
360 Link can search content by DOI published by CrossrRef.
But DOI published by other institute (e.g. JaLC) is not searchable.
So please enable DOI Search for not CrossRef DOI.9 votes -

Idea for changing the results of the 360 API's calling to sort of order to the most recent first .
As the reaction to the release on 3rd Nov 2021 which has been provided on EJP, I'm suggesting of changing the results of the 360 API's calling to sort of order to the most recent
Because it become more usable if the platform which using this 360 API could display the databases with the most recent coverage first.

fuzzy keyword search in the E-Journal Portal (AZ List)
Our patrons do not always know the exact name or spelling of a journal or how to use an asterisk.
We think the E-Journal Portal search box should support fuzzy keyword searching.

Filtering titles with status "under review" in client center e-catalog search
On "e-Catalog" search box in ClientCenter, admin cannot filter titles with "Status Is".
It will be helpful if we could sort titles on "e-Catalog" search box with the status "Under Review".
Because some admin would like to register a title as "Under review" title at first and then change it to "Subscribed" at a later time.

client center
The Client Center staff-side user interface needs to be updated. It looks and functions almost the the same as it did when we first used Serials Solutions in 2004. It's slow and fails accessibility testing.

Filter search results in the Ebook and Journal portal (EJP)
The EJP is a good way to find full text journals by subject area, however, once you have searched or browsed to a subject, there is no way to narrow your search any further except to show only open access titles. It would be helpful to restrict results to recent books or journals with current access, or to peer-reviewed sources, for example.

Let 360 Link make use of the EBSCO API
Have 360 Link make use of the EBSCO API, which would allow 360 Link to do a 'pre-check' for article availability and suppress the full text link if the EBSCO API returns an unavailable status. This EBSCO API option is a feature currently available in Alma but not yet available in 360 Link. It would be great if Summon could take advantage of this API too.

Add the ability to hide a title from E-journal portal public view in the Client Center
When "we subscribe to only some of the titles in this database" is selected then titles have to be manually updated. We would like to be able to not check that box so that the collection is updated and maintained automatically, but we want to be able to hide individual titles from public view.

360 Core Client Center Manging Reports
I see the subject field is available in the Journal report but not in the Tracked Ebooks report.
It would be useful to have the field subject in the Tracked Ebooks report when you download it,5 votes -
KBART exporting of 360 collections
We have the ability to import KBART files into 360 but lack the ability to export collections data in the KBART format. As a result, when libraries need our collections as KBART files we must map the 360 export to a KBART template. Allowing for KBART exporting would simplify this.

Show the details of contract with publishers concerning search target
Contents which are searchable in Summon differ per publisher or database.
It will be helpful for librarian if they could confirm the details of contracts about search target or the breakdown of search target in ClientCenter.4 votes -
Notification request for zero-title database
Sometimes, databases in KB seem to be changed to zero-title databases without notification.
For example, "Optica Conferene Papers" was changed to zero-title database and there was no notification through "Knowledge Articles" on Knowledge Center or "Knowledge Notification" on Client Center.Since it may be possible to use other databases to register titles recorded before one database changed to be zero-title one, I hope that notification through "Knowledge Articles" and "Knowledge Notification" to be published whenever Ex Libris makes databases a zero-title ones.
