At Innovative, from Clarivate, we believe in building with our community. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce the October 7–8, 2025, release of Vega Discover, shaped directly by 779 Idea Exchange votes and closing 16 enhancement requests.
This release is packed with meaningful improvements that elevate the discovery experience for both library staff and patrons.

Non-circulating materials display (77 votes in total)
Patrons can now easily identify materials that are for in-library use only, with clear indicators on both the item and search pages and automatic request button suppression. Bulk settings allow libraries to apply In Library Use Only based on Material Types, Locations, and Collections.
MEEP Winner: Use ILS bib record lists for showcase creation (98 votes)
Libraries can now build showcases using existing ILS to create lists or record sets, streamlining workflows and saving valuable time.
Facet navigation and display improvements (149 votes)
We’ve refined how facets are displayed and navigated, making it easier for users to filter and explore search results – you can now view up to 100 facet results at a time in the “All Facets” view using the scrollbar, with the ability to load more facets as you explore – handy, right?
Citation options (13 votes)
Patrons can now choose which edition to cite from the roll-up menu, including both Chicago and MLA citation styles. Citations can be copied and pasted directly into a document or emailed for future reference.
You can visit Idea Exchange anytime to submit enhancement requests for any of our Vega Products.
