Total cost of items ordered per session

It would be good to have a total of the cost of books ordered per ordering session. This would be useful to Selectors who often have broad weekly/monthly expenditure guidelines.

List author affiliations in GOBI notifications so we don't have to check them ourselves before deciding whether to purchase.

Useful for librarians who prefer not to purchase titles in their subject areas by authors outside those disciplines.

Templates configuration

Many in the library are using templates for selecting titles. It would be very useful, if we could determine fields that have to be filled in, before sending the titles via GOBI Express.

Calculate Est. Net total for selected items

In the Gobi platform, being able to see the net and list price totals of selected items would cut down on extra work to make sure funds are not over spent.

View E-book licensing within GOBI for publisher/aggregator platforms

I would like to be able to see platform licensing (any restrictions on access and usage) within GOBI when I am selecting or purchasing an ebook.
