Hi all, I'm reaching out to the community for help in naming a new feature that we hope will be included in Evergreen 3.2.
MassLNC has sponsored a project that will allow users to select a batch of titles from the catalog search results page and then perform a variety of actions on those titles (place a hold, add to a list, print, email, etc.). When titles are selected they are automatically added to something that will essentially replace the Evergreen temporary lists. When MassLNC ran some focus groups with library staff over a year ago, this was a frequently requested feature. At the same time, focus group participants often said they just wanted a quick way to add titles to "a cart." When I pointed out that people could already add titles to a temporary list, a common response was that the label "temporary list" isn't very informative for the end user. They are used to web apps that use a cart, basket or bag to perform the same function. We would like community input on what this new thing should be called. If you would like to provide feedback, please fill out the one-question survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/XNKWPZ9. More information about the project can be found at https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1721575. MassLNC is testing it now and is very excited about seeing it in an upcoming release!
