  1. Allow borrowing articles to deliver immediately via trusted sender and auto bill the default amount to the user

    If every user is always charged $x for an article, there is no reason for staff to mediate those. The billing could be added and the article delivered to the user.

  2. When creating new users in the staff client, default to electronic notification options

    Currently, none of the notification check boxes are checked by default on the new user form. Staff have to remember which of the check boxes to check to set a new user to receive all electronic notifications. It would be good to have a setting that made those check boxes checked by default.

  3. Allow Z39.50 searches to work with servers that don't support unicode

    Several Z39.50 servers don't support Unicode or non-ASCII characters. If the ILLiad title has those characters in it, the search returns no results. It may be necessary to replace characters with their Latin equivalent before searching.

  4. Allow cloned requests to be routed

    Option 1: Add a tracking entry that is created before the routing rule is triggered so that the routing rule can reference the tracking table.

    Option 2: Create a new menu option of Clone and Route that prompts the staff user to pick the new queue.

  5. Default OpenURL journal genre to article form instead of loan form

    Most examples of OpenURL with the "journal" genre are still article requests versus a request for a loan of the entire journal. Data would not be lost if we use the article request form instead.

  8. When sending ILLiad requests to Aeon, include the library name and address

    The special collections department likes to know which institution is requesting certain items.

  11. Treat Checked Out to ILL Staff the same as Checked Out to Customer in the staff client

    Currently, Checked Out to ILL Staff behaves like a processing queue in the staff client versus like Checked Out to Customer. So Request Sent shows as an option versus the standard options for a checked out item.

  12. Ability to remove loan information from web pages.

    Many libraries take advantage of NCIP integration with their ILS and thus manage loans (due dates and renewals) directly with their ILS, thus patrons are encouraged not to log into ILLiad web pages to perform those tasks. However, there is no easy way to remove or hide that from the web pages.

  13. Set web session timeout by patron type/status

    From customer: We have a faculty member complaining about the web session. We have it set at 10 minutes since so many of our patrons use shared/pubic workstations. Is there any way to individualize web session times by patron type?

  15. Allow the document type to be set on default ILLiad web forms

    Use case: A library would like to offer the option for patrons to request a loan in ebook format and process through the Occam's Reader addon. We have set this up as an option with an Item Info field currently, but it would be helpful to be able to use Document Type where this info seems to live more naturally. The other workaround considered was changing the default loan form for GenericRequestLoan but this seemed like a lot of extra work (include_menus, OpenURL Mapping, Validation, etc.) just to add a new value. So if we ever get to make changes…

  20. Have a custom key that allows Sites to choose if the characters \/;:,.&? get stripped off or not

    Some characters may get dropped from Title when displayed in the Title Search box. This affects the Search results. For example, when testing Angels & Demons, the book did not show until the ampersand was added back in.
