Hi,
I wondered if you could reach out to this forum if you are beta testing Vega Discover’s new Account Portal. We just went live with Vega Discover and our customers are struggling with the accordion style My Bookshelf space. I would love to hear how the beta testing is coming along.

Thank you,

Hi Elizabeth,

There is an Account Portal Early Adopters Group. For that, there have been 2 meetings (1 in June and 1 in July). The group has been shown some possible designs and documentation and had an opportunity to ask questions and give feedback during the meetings and through a followup survey. I don’t think libraries are beta testing yet.

Thanks @SarahK - I wonder if the Vega Discover MEEP working group would consider adding the development of this Account Portal as a priority for the next voting cycle. Any customer with their browser text size of more than 150% simple cannot see a single title without scrolling (holds, checked out items, reading history etc). I believe that this is the case for all Vega Discover libraries.
