NEW CAPABILITIES
> 28 March 2024: Browsing & Searching in the PDP -- When the "Browsing & Searching the Content Catalog" page, all of the learning resources are displayed in a random order. Then, after any browsing & searching, the resulting Learning Resource Results Card order will be listed with last added to the PDP first all the way through first added to the PDP at the end of the results. As of 28 March 2024, there is now an "Order" button to the top right of the Learning Resource Results cards. This allows the users to determine how they want their results listed, i.e., title alphabetically (A to Z or Z to A) or publication date (newest to oldest or oldest to newest).
> 28 March 2024: My Bookshelf capabilities -- For INCOSE Members & CAB Associates, there are now 3 sub-pages for their My Bookshelf page -- Added, In Progress, and Completed. When users click the "Add to Bookshelf" button on the lower right-hand corner of the Learning Resource Results Cards, it will go to the "Added" sub-page (i.e., just added to their bookshelf). Once the Learning Resource Results Card is in their bookshelf, the bottom right button changes to "Move on Bookshelf." The individual user can now move their cards to the In Progress sub-page, the Completed sub-page, or remove it from their bookshelf. Above the Learning Resource Results Cards, there is a button to "toggle" between the Completed, In Progress, and Added sub-pages. When the user clicks one of the sub-pages, just the Learning Resource Results Cards they have on that page will be displayed.
(With the Google Search, you will be searching outside the PDP Content Catalog - search areas include incose.org, SEBOK, BKCase and OMG MBSE Wiki)
