Thanks so much, Stacey -- that works wonderfully, and effectively allows us to work in batches of 50, as desired. Fantastic!

The ability to create a logical set from Analytics Report would really save our time, and allow us to make better use of the relative date feature in Analytics, which is not available in Alma searching alone. We are creating collections of new materials by first creating a report in Analytics, using relative dates (past 30 days, past 1 years, etc.), then creating a set in Alma from the Analytics report, and then populating a collection from this set for Collection Discovery. Currently, only an itemized set can be created from Analytics Report, so although we can automate the running of the source report itself, we have to completely re-create a new set each time we want to update, and then refresh our collection from the set. A logical set from the Analytics report would greatly simplify the process and save our time, and make it much easier and more efficient for us to highlight new materials for our end users!

We have recevied te following response from EndNote:
We support OpenURL from SFX, which offers XML responses via REST. Other services, like Primo and Alma, did not support this at the time of Find Full-Text feature development.However, we have already forwarded this to our Development team as an enhancement request to have this feature with the future release of the EndNote program.
We from Technical Support are not sure how this enhancement would be prioritized in terms of upcoming development work. While all the product suggestion submissions are reviewed by development for ideas and features for new versions of the software

It would be great if EndNote and Ex Libris could collaborate to improve the process; I appreciate that Ex Libris is interested. Can we get an update? Did Ex Libris get answers to the questions Dana asked in October 2019 re: what features are missing, an EndNote contact, and examples? The only info I have is EndNote's statement, "we support Open URL from SFX, which offers XML responses via REST. Other services, like Primo and Alma, did not support this at the time of Find Full-Text feature development" which suggests that the problem is a lack of XML responses via REST -- but what else? And what can we all do? (I am reaching out to EndNote also.)

We would appreciate the ability to enable "fuzzy" or expanded matching within Resource Recommender, for example, matching "&" with "and" and ignoring punctuation. We currently have to add multiple tags to cover all variations upon which a user might search, which is extremely time-consuming and cumbersome.

A way to prominently display additional information about the circulation status upfront is greatly needed. Our system is configured to display non-circulating items as Not Loanable -- but they still display as Available, which is confusing to users. Being able to display some combination of availability, such as Available - In Library Use Only, etc. would make a much better, less confusing experience for our researchers.

Thank you for this suggestions. we will need more information to understand the use cases. you can currently select multiple facets or used the Advanced Search

As a very simple example, I may search for some broad topics, like "therapy dogs" and "stress relief" -- and after searching realize that what I actually want is resources related to "therapy dogs" and "stress relief", especially if I find that I get a great number of results with either single search, possibly including non-relevant results. It would be a great time saver to simply be able to combine these two searches via selecting them in Search History and using a boolean operator. (Alternately, one could also opt to include multiple searches with few results via this method.) An indication of the number of results included in each search result would indeed be helpful, too.

I found some ProQuest documentation on "How to Combine Two or More Recent Searches" https://support.proquest.com/articledetail?id=kA1400000008WjbCAE that may be illustrative.

An example of use case is the ability for users to combine their searches in new and different ways; for example, building iterative searches, being able to most efficiently narrow and manage searches. The current functionality mentioned (selecting multiple facets, using advanced search) all require pre-coordination of searching, so a user who wishes to add complexities or refine criteria will always have to re-start the search from scratch. Combining searches is a more sophisticated and efficient and fairly common tool. Are more specific examples required?

We would also like very much to see MARCIVE GPO in the PCI. Any status updates on this collection?

A day and/or week embargo option would really help us and our users very much -- we have some newspapers with current issue only access, and it's impossible for us to indicate accurate coverage with current settings.
