We would like to be able to change the default of the search results in Oasis.
We would like to be able to change the default of the search results in Oasis. In the old system we could sort by Copyright year and it would carry on defaulting to this, unless you changed it again. Although we can choose this in the new interface, it always reverts back to best match results, which is a really odd default. Is there anyway we can change this to default to Copyright year?

Talis Integration
I would like ProQuest to work with Talis to integrate supplier information (book & ebook prices) into the Talis Aspire product. Talis Aspire has become an integral part of our ordering workflow and other book suppliers have already taken the step to integrate using an API. For us, it would create greater efficiency in stock selection as we would not need to login to multiple websites to check for prices and would almost certainly lead to us buying more books and ebooks from ProQuest.
It would also help massively if prices shown were inclusive of VAT & discounts. This links…
30 votesThank you for this feedback! We are working with Talis to identify the best path forward.

minimize Authorize Order page to view and edit multiple items at once
The new Authorize Order page has great features that it truly needed. The only problem is that each item is huge and takes up the entire viewing page. An expand or contract option would be helpful.

Order Ebook Central upgrades through OASIS
The ability to order an Ebook Central license upgrade through OASIS. This can then follow the same workflow as any other OASIS order, with the institution being invoiced for the upgrade cost only.
This is currently working perfectly when upgrading eBook licenses on GOBI.
35 votesThank you for your suggestions and votes on this. We're considering ways of potentially adding this functionality.

View order status all on one page
We would like to be able to view all order statuses on one page, like you would with Amazon. That way we wouldn't have to click on each title for to see the status. That takes too much time.
8 votesWe are currently exploring ways to make statuses more visible and prominent in the browse experience.
Please reach out to me at kevan.mcgowan@proquest.com to review the new design

Allow Administrators to create new users
It would simplify things immensely if admins could add new users to their library without having to make the request directly to customer service.

Add option for "fuzzy" title search when there is no exact match
When there is no exact match in a title search, it would be helpful if instead of bringing back “No results found”, the system reverted to a fuzzier search and brought back similar results. Something like, “No exact results for your search, but here are some similar titles…”
