    More parameters for managing Notifications (f.e.: publication year, series title, more fields)

    I would like to filter titles for Notifications based on all the fields that GOBI shows for titles. For example: I always want to include certain series (no matter the subject) so it would be nice to be able to specify this in the Notification Man...

    Ability to filter, sort, and/or search for titles with reviews.

    We base many selection decisions on reviews and it would be helpful to filter searches/lists to include only titles with reviews. (Alternately, sorting reviewed titles to the top of the list would help.) Being able to add "has reviews" as an advan...

    Allow current List Price default view to change to my country's currency

    I'm from Canada but all the prices display for me in USD by default. I'd like this to change, either automatically by GOBI recognizing my country based on my profile, or by me selecting it in my preferences. This would be a huge time-saver.

    Add "Exclude titles already owned" from GOBI Add titles by ISBN search
