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 Manager. I also want to be able to exclude older titles, so including a filter that allows me to exclude titles with Pub year below a certain year would be nice. I would also like to be able to filter using more than the three provided forms. If this needs to be limited, perhaps expand it to a maximum of five.

    Thank you, Jennifer. That is good to know. However, I use the Notifications to set up 'profiles' for faculty members so they automatically receive title lists from which they can choose titles they want to order for the library. I would like to be able to fine-tune these profiles in more detail, and basically to have the same options as the Advanced Search

    Thank you for sharing this idea! Many of the filter and search options you are describing currently exist in the Advanced Search parameter options and could be set up as Saved Searches to help provide the level of detail and flexibility you would like.
