Libguides do provide some functionality, but titles must be chosen piecemeal and constantly updated.

Is your feature request related to a problem or a change to existing functionality? Please describe.

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

Describe alternatives you've considered Libguides for the reasons above are clunky for this purpose Filters can be used by users, but a dynamic webpage, already curated would be better for curation and marketing of collections both print and electronic would be much more preferable.

How will this impact users? A clear and concise description of how many and which types of users would benefit from this feature, or any who may be negatively impacted by the change.

This would be beneficial to all users and really highlight our collections, a nice supplement to physical displays (McNaughton and New Books). This is a feature that has been in demand for many years, both from librarians and users, to better engage with the collection!
