Send resource sharing requests directly to pick up locations
Have the option to send the pick up location's address (where the pick up location is a library not requests with personal delivery selected) to the lending library to have the request sent directly to the pick up location rather than to the Resource sharing library.
A little tick box to receive resource sharing requests could be good, similar to screen shot.

Differentiate Rapido Physical Offer
Is ist possible to differentiate Rapido Physical Offers by POD or by type of order?
We would like to have the possibility to be able to suppress the display of the Rapido Tile more specifically.
E.g. we would like to suppress the Rapido Tile for courier but not for home delivery.18 votes -
Hide Rapido tile with availability by the borrowing library
We would like to have the option to hide the Rapido tile with availability by the borrowing library, because we do not have a campus structure and the IZ is made up of widely scattered libraries.

Option to Separate CDI and GTI
Currently, to turn on CDI for unowned electronic resources also turns on the GTI for physical resources. We want to be able to include article request data in a separate search profile. The GTI is very messy still and librarians are asking for more control in their default sets to better meet the needs of our patrons without frustrating them with bad records for items they cannot get. We want to indlude CDI for unowned items in all our search profiles and still let patrons be able to expand to the GTI.

Hide unrequestable formats in the GTI
Our librarians and patrons are increasingly frustrated with the number of records in the GTI for items not available through requesting. We would like the ability to configure what format types appear in our GTI search profiles. This way our library can decide to hide all streaming video from appearing in the search for our patrons. Basically, a built in behind the scenes filter.
This is how I think it would work. In the search profile settings, add a place where systems librarians can select what formats they want visible in the GTI. For example they can select Book, DVD,…

Print multiple slips for multivolume requests
For multivolume requests, only one shipping slip or return slip is printed even though Rapido knows there are multiple items involved in the request. Practitioners have a few workarounds right now: we can rubberband items together; we can photocopy the printed slip; or we can reprint the slip however many times is needed to have a slip per item. The second two options are a waste of time, and the first can lead to items with no paperwork attached to them if the rubber band breaks or the books otherwise become separated from each other. Rapido knows how many items…

Bring in ISSN when DOI is present in the blank form
Currently when a patron makes a request using the blank form, they can click a box to auto-populate fields based on a DOI. A surprisingly large amount of the time patrons have a DOI but don’t think to click the button and requests come to staff review for us to add an ISSN. We would like Rapido to check the DOI and add in the ISSN even if the patron doesn’t click the auto-populate button. This would greatly reduce the number of requests coming to staff review, which would decrease both staff time spent looking up ISSNs and turnaround time.

Volume information from RapidR requests should import to Rapido
Sometimes we’ll get a request for a single volume from a multivolume set where RapidR shows which volume the patron wants, but that information hasn’t transferred into Rapido and doesn’t show on the pull slip. In these cases, someone has to take the extra step to log into Rapid to find out whether volume information is available, which is a waste of time. Usually it isn’t obvious that the title is a multivolume set, so additional time is wasted either going back into the stacks to collect the volumes or reshelving extra volumes which were pulled. Rapido should be able…

Full partner records for RapidILL partners
Our Rapido, ISO, and email partners all get full partner records in Rapido. However, our Rapid partners just get a per-request import of contact information from the Rapid directory that we can’t augment or otherwise work with. We want partner records for RapidILL partners to appear in the Resource Sharing Partner List; they could either appear only in the Institution list, or appear in the Community list so we could copy them into the Institution list to edit them. This would let us augment the information from Rapid with customizable fields currently available in the partner record interface, allow us…

Create Analytics report based on Patron Query template
We would like to run analytics based on patron query emails to see how many times we’re sending certain messages to our patron, such as that their request exceeds copyright or that we already own the item they are requesting. Having access to this information could improve our services in the future, as it could show places where we need to focus efforts on patron education or where we need to change something about how we do things.

Replace uploaded file when resending to patron
Sometimes someone makes a mistake when scanning an article or book chapter and we need to send a second file to the patron. Currently, when we upload the second file to Rapido it creates a second URL for retrieval which is then sent to the patron. However–especially if we notice the error before the patron does–the patron often clicks on the first URL sent to them instead of the URL with the correct scan. This leads to patrons emailing us complaining that their scans aren’t right or can’t be opened and we have to email them the new file. We…

Combine email partners
We would like to be able to combine email partners the same way we can now combine ISO partners. This would be helpful in cases where multiple libraries on a campus combine into one symbol. We don’t want to delete the partner libraries we are no longer using because we want to retain the stats, but they clutter up our list of partners and are too easy for someone who doesn’t know that the ILL departments have merged to click accidentally (i.e. if someone were requesting a book from Harvard Law and didn’t know that the main Harvard ILL department…

Invoices from Rapido to RapidR partners
Rapido lenders are able to send invoices to other Rapido libraries or to ISO partners, but are unable to send invoices to RapidR libraries. I am aware that RapidR does not involve lending fees. Ex Libris intends to allow lost/damaged fee invoicing, as seen by the not-yet-implemented "Lost/Damaged item fee" invoice field in Rapido.
Ex Libris has grandfathered Rapido libraries into RapidR, thus increasing the number of libraries I may need to bill for lost items without having a workable invoice function.
Please develop invoicing from Rapido to RapidR partners.

Allow Borrowing Request Print Slips to Print Regardless of Status
Currently for Borrowing Requests that were not received, no print slip is printed. We would like to be able to print a pick slip at any point during an active requests. There are times were self-owned items require a shelf-check as our items such as journals do not have item records so we need to confirm that we own the item before forwarding it to a lending library or cancelling the request as owned. There is no way to print this information easily if Print Slip cannot be initiated. Please allow for Print Slips to print regardless of the status…
