Thank you for the suggestion. We are excited to share that this feature is now available in the new OCLC Community Center. Community members can now subscribe for email updates when new ideas are posted, when fellow community members post replies or vote, and when OCLC updates an Idea's status. Community members can also subscribe to individual Ideas to receive updates for just the community ideas that are most important to them. 

For more information about subscribing to ideas, review Learn about community-submitted ideas in the new Community Center. Thank you for your suggestions to help improve engagement in the Community Center!

Description of Enhancement


Please add a 'subscribe' option to the Enhancement Suggestions list.


Issues Enhancement Will Resolve


Many very useful suggestions are submitted here, the subscription option would help prevent good ideas from going by unnoticed. And also save our community the trouble of reminding itself to look into the list now and then to see if there's anything new.

This would be great--as is, I only check when there's a post in one of the discussion forums asking for feedback. I'd love to just get automatic notifications about enhancements, inestead.

This would be a huge help to staying on top of the user-OCLC collaborative space.

I believe with no automated notifications for new and updated enhancment request threads they are not getting enough attention and therefore lost.  And given the oft suggestions to  create an enhancement request even for obvious bugs we need them out there to the commnity.

You mean I'm not following enhancements already? Drat!

Yes, this is important - let's make it easy for people to follow enhancement suggestions and add their opinions. Perhaps link it to following the discussion topics for that area.

We need this! Currently, there's no easy way to see new enhancements requests or track your submissions.

Yes.  I'd like to hear about ideas other member libraries have for improving WMS and other OCLC services.  I sometimes even neglect to check back on enhancement requests I've made.  See the discussion at https://www.oclc.org/community/discovery/enhancements_WCD/search-results.en.html#q=%22Not%20planned%...
