Slack/General Questions

5-10

UCB: ExLibris ticket response to Worldcat API v2

UCSD: Filters not being “sticky” when running new searches (i.e. new tab) (Added slack message to item 3 in case this needs more than a brief update).

UCR: Orbis-Cascade Facets counts workaround

UCSC: sort_by_owner_group param not working. ExLibris is saying a fix is expected in June release. (Re: 07207975, 07029351, 07207893)

UCSC: Anyone else with bX Recommender considering whether or not to renew for next year?

UCB: Relevancy ranking degradation reports. Even in NZ only scopes. (Turns out to be user error because the February release made the default sort sticky and it caught users off guard. It’s weird too.)
