Re: Patron book list

[Carol Gyger <gyger at julip dot fcgov dot com>]

Eeva,

Yes, we use Preferred Searches but it isn't as straight forward as I would
like for producing a list of titles.  For example, if you drill down to a
full bib record level and click the Preferred Searches button, your
original search is saved not the title itself.  It would be great if it
saved the title.  One can work around this by starting with a title search
for each title you want to add to your list.  I think our customers would
like something like Amazon.com's Wish List.  You click an item and it adds
it to your wish list.

Sounds like an enhancement idea.

We allow 10 saved searches per patron, but you can allow many more and the patron can actually delete these themselves and as they want to save a search, they can do so by selecting "save search" and it will add it to the Preferred Searches in their My Millennium account!  I hope this helps you!  Kind regards, Eeva
