Bug ID: 38858
Summary: Add Featured Collections to Koha OPAC
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: 24.05
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low
Component: OPAC
Assignee: [email protected]

Featured collections can currently be added to the Koha OPAC by installing the
CoverFlow Plugin. I think this should become a native feature for the Koha OPAC
with some expanded functionality.
Some Examples:
1. A patron account saves search histories. These function in some ways like a
saved search (also addressed in Bug 36404). These saved search histories are
also a link. That link could be used in a button that appears on the OPAC home
page. Perhaps something similar to a Browse Category in Aspen Discovery. While
it is possible to code something like this now, a management tool may be useful
in the staff interface, perhaps in Tools and called Featured Collections. This
tool could allow the user to turn on or off Featured Collection, schedule it,
etc.
2. Expand Lists to include functionality of displaying on the OPAC home page as
a featured collection. Lists could be added in a Featured Collections tool but
would allow the user to create curated lists.
The Featured Collections could appear on the OPAC home page as buttons. So the
user would need the ability to name the collection. There could be discussions
on the number of buttons that can appear, whether they should rotate, etc.
The CoverFlow Plugin would still be available if the library would like a
rotating carousel of book covers.
I think there are a lot of possibilities to adding this to Koha.
