Authorities

Authority deletion moves authority records to the archive and marks MARC authorities as DELETED. By default, the retention policy for archived authorities is deletion after 7 days.
To enable tenants to have specific retention periods for authority archives, it's necessary to add a configuration in mod-settings. Details how to set the configuration is provided in module documentation.

Users (Profile Pictures)

When enabled Profile pictures can be attached to user records, either with a link to an externally hosted image, or by uploading a local file. Images are stored in the database by default, but can be configured to use Object storage. 

Supported file formats: jpg, jpeg, png

To enable profile pictures functionality, set the maximum allowed file size, and for details on configuring Object storage, follow the instructions included in the mod-users readme documentation.

Search, Inventory

To make mod-search consume all types of changes for instances, holdings, items, and changes related to bound-with functionality it has a consumer with a default Kafka topic pattern:

(${ENV}\.)(.*\.)inventory\.(instance|holdings-record|item|bound-with)
This pattern could be changed by setting KAFKA_EVENTS_CONSUMER_PATTERN environment variable.

If the library requires the default behavior of mod-search, please ensure that the KAFKA_EVENTS_CONSUMER_PATTERN is either omitted from the environment variables or is set to the same value as the default pattern.

Acquisitions

Replace deprecated calls if needed, before Ramsons.

Data export

This is only relevant for libraries that custom scripts to export inventory data. In Quesnelia, Imod-data-export migrated from RMB to to spring and two contracts in API calls have been modified:

1. /data-export/quick-export “fileName” property in the request is no longer used.

2. /data-export/job-executions: “Progress” property in the response contains now following fields: "exported", "failed", "duplicatedSrs", "total", "readIds".
   

Re-test existing scripts against Quesnelia version of mod-data-export to ensure no updates are needed

Requests, Staff slips

• New, optional Staff slip called "Search slip (Hold requests)".

• For Requests meeting the following criteria: is Hold (either title or item level) and is Open – Not yet filled, libraries will be able to print Requests in order for staff members to check libraries shelves for copies that can fill the request.

• Libraries decide whether to use the new Staff slip in Settings > Circulation > Staff slips > Search slip (Hold requests).

• For libraries using the functionality, Staff users will print Search slips in the Requests app. by selecting Actions > Print search slips for [insert service point here]. The report generates a single slip for every qualified Hold request.

Lists

There is now a check that, by default, runs at mod-lists’s start-up to verify that S3/MinIO is accessible since this isn’t immediately obvious and may not be noticed for a while. If this check fails, the module will exit immediately.

If S3/MinIO are not available or list export functionality is not required, this check can be disabled by setting the environment variable (or system property) mod-lists.list-export.s3-startup-check.enabled to false before starting the module.
