  2. Dynamic statuses for remaining days to view uploaded scans

    Boston Public Library would like for there to be a dynamic status line that lets patrons know how many days they have left to download an electronically delivered scan on the Aeon web interface. There should be a dynamic status for each available download if there are more that one available at the same time.

  3. Allow for custom fields to be added to patron appointment request

    California State University L.A. would like to have a drop-down field on the appointment form for the patron to choose the purpose of their appointment. They don't want the field to be on the request form, because the patron would have to select the purpose for each item request for that appointment if the field was required. And they have many returning researchers, so they don't want the field to be on the user registration, as it is more specific to the appointment/reason for the visit.

  4. Length of appointment should accurately reflect available length on each day

    Purdue University allows for all day appointments, so their longest time span is 9 hours. However, there is one day where they open for 8 hours. Their hours are set up correctly for each day, but the "9 hours" option still displays on the 8-hour day, most likely from the Maximum Appointment Length setting. If the patron selects the "9 hours' option, there are no available appointment times to choose from in the Appointment Time field.

  5. Add conditional header to researcher tags on MainMenu

    Add a header that says "Researcher Tags" before the tag display on MainMenu.html. The header should be conditional and should only display when tags are present, in order to call them out to patrons.

  6. Ability to verify valid email addresses when patrons register

    Boston Public Library would like to make sure that patrons add a valid, working email address when registering in Aeon. This goes beyond web validation for email address formatting; they would like for Aeon to be able to send an email validation to the patron to confirm that it is their email address.

  7. Allowing users to toggle between reading rooms in the appointment booking calendar

    It would be helpful is users could toggle between reading rooms in the appointment booking calendar. It's confusing to have to select which reading room first then bring up the calendar. It should just be in one place. Thanks!

  8. Form-specific Status text

    Not all requests are the same, so not all web forms are the same semantically, so the status text on a form may benefit from being customized to the form semantics or origin. Right now, SLShowRequest and SLEditRequest in Customization Manager handle status lines for all requests. If we want to have different text for, say, the Photoduplication form from the Monograph form, we have to have empty values for SLShowRequest and SLEditRequest, and to add text to each form's HTML file. This also means adding text to each form's HTML file that should in fact get the same text.…

  9. Allow a patron to copy the primary mailing address information to the secondary address fields

    The University of Pittsburgh uses both the main address and secondary address blocks on the registration pages for their patrons. For non-affiliates, they want to capture permanent and local/work addresses; for affiliates, they want to capture permanent and local/campus addresses. They would like for some kind of button that allows the patron to automatically populate the secondary address fields if the address was the same for both address blocks - similar to shipping and billing addresses on e-commerce sites.

  10. Add Appointment Creation ability to API/Endpoints

    Need the ability to create appointments in the API so that we can leverage that when using external requesting.

  11. Allow Aeon to recieve requests from Worldshare ILL

    Hello,

    More frequently recently my ILL team has been asked to create accounts in Aeon systems.

    Recently leading special collections have said to my ILL team that Aeon did not interact with Worldshare ILL. That effectively means that Cleveland Public Library patrons are unable to make ILL or copying requests except when an Aeon account is created.

    We are not an Illiad library.

    We can create multiple accounts all over the country and manage a giant spreadsheet of them along with loans.

    We would like it if Aeon were able to field requests (at least copying or digitization requests) from…

  12. ArchivesSpace plugin: add validation on checkboxes in list for user review

    For requests coming from ArchivesSpace using the plugin, add validation on the checkboxes in the list for user review, so requests can't be submitted unless checkboxes are checked.

  13. Ability to temporary disable patron services in Aeon

    The site would like to be able to temporarily disable photoduplication service availability while the applicable staff person is out of the office. This functionality could be similar to something like disabling ILL services when the library is closed. Perhaps there could be a toggle option that would prevent the photoduplication form from being available to the patron during this time period, along with an explanatory message of the situation.

  14. Update FAQ section on password reset

    The default text in the FAQ section says:

    "In the event that you forget your password, please contact the
    Reference staff at (800) 555-1234. We can then reset your password allowing you access to Aeon. Please change your password once you logon to Aeon."

    For security purposes, patrons should be encouraged to reset their own password. The default language should be updated to direct the patron to ForgotPassword.html first, then to contact staff if they still need assistance.

  16. The ability to use the Site Description column in more areas.

    Right now the new SiteDescription column offers the ability to create and display more detailed site descriptions, but it is limited to web page grids. It would be nice if this column was opened up for use with other page elements.

  17. Update validation message on Keep in Review page to better indicate which field(s) is not validating.

    Current Keep in Review validation just says "This request is missing required information." It should be updated to know which field is missing required information so it is more clear to patrons whether they just need to choose a scheduled date or if other required information is missing from a request.

  18. Add integration for requesting from Hyrax

    UCSC is in the process of creating a new Hyrax based Digital Asset Management System to replace our current system, CONTENTdm. We're at the stage that we're starting to look at implementing Aeon within the new DAMS and would like to option to add a request link to Hyrax. http://hyr.ax/

  19. Clean "Unable to determine StateCode for ID 999" from the Aeon DLL logs

    There are several places where this message appears. It makes diagnosing other actual errors harder because of the clutter in the logs.

  20. Remove unnecessary tabindex=0 on inputs because they're redundant

    tabindex=0 adds an html element to the tab order. By default, inputs are already focusable, so they do not need a tabindex=0.

    Note: the tabindex=0 should also be removed from any elements that do not explicitly need to be focusable via tab. Screen readers users will be able to reach the text regardless whether it is in the tab order or not. It'll likely just confused keyboard users.
