SummonとExribrisの検索結果に複数のCitation metrics（IF, FWCI, h-Index etc）を標準装備する
＜現状＞
Summonのジャーナル論文検索結果にAlt metricsのドーナツが表示されている。
→＜将来＞
Alt-metricsとジャーナルIFが同時に表示される。可能であればFWCIまでを標準装備させる。
＜理由＞
①Citationデータベースを新たに起動させる必要がなくなること、情報利便性と可視化が一歩前進する。
②大学と研究機関が出版社へ支払うコストは新規論文購入に絞ることで学術情報流通の完全な分業化をはかる。
③アグリゲータによる広範なフルテキストDBのバックアップと明確な研究IR支援によるコンサル事業を分ける。
④高度かつハイブリッドな情報リテラシー教育支援コミュニティをベースにおくアグリゲータサービスの樹立を目指す1 vote -
Accurate date of publication
Some times we have unclear publication date for a book, and in such case, we set eg.[19--] at 260$c in Alma.
Summon calculates it to 1900 and displays it at result page. We would like to display it as 260$c without no change.
Also eg.[201-] and Kanji notation [明治頃] as well.Thank you very much for your cooperation.

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.

Log Changes to Permissions
Changes to Client Center Accounts permissions, i.e. 360 Link Admin Console, are currently not logged in 'View Changes'. We do not have a way to check the history of any permissions changes on the account at this time. Having this feature will help us minimize unnecessary confusion and misunderstanding.

Toggle on/off for search results autoload
Many users prefer the scroll to autoload search results. As convenient as that is, it is reportedly posing a difficulty for those who must use screen readers at our institution. They need to be able to load one page at a time. It isn't important if the citations per page is 10, 20, or some other number just as long as they can page forward and backward in the results. I would like to see a way for users to toggle on/off autoload for search results. If that is not possible, then adding a way in the admin console to…

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.

Search by URL in the client center
It would be great to be able to search a journal's URL in the client center. Sometimes I need to find out which collection uses a certain URL for a journal and doing a title search + checking each title individually is cumbersome.

Next Expected Update date for collections
Similar to the "Last Full Update" and "Last Partial Update" dates in the 360 KB database entries, it could cut down on the volume of cases about new individual titles if the collections that get updated on a regular schedule also had "Next Expected Update" date to display.

Summon UI Language to Be Transferred to Catalog UI
Could you please make it available to configure language condition to the link from Summon to Catalog?
This request is from a Japanese university.
For example, it is preferable that a record on Summon (UI: English) leads to Catalog page of English version. Currently it is led to the default Japanese Catalog page even though Summon UI language is English.1 vote -
Avoid adding inappropriate data automatically
I would like the administrator to be able to select whether or not to apply the function of automatic completion of bibliographic information to the titles registered as Library Specific Holdings. Sometimes, this function gives titles inappropriate data.
