Alma May 2026 Release Notes

Notable Changes :

  • OCR for Received Documents; doesn’t do alt text, seems to do non English language okay, does it work on local requests?

  • Pickup Location Field Removed for Digital Resource Sharing Requests and Blank Request Forms; in Alma defaults to default pu location, will need to configure

  • Prevent Requests for Blocked Loans - unclear if blocks local AND resource sharing requests, in testing with FOST & locally at UCB

  • Update of User Data for Fulfillment Network in Real Time- fyi, good for us
