## Changes, improvements and fixes 

- PDF Viewer Performance [*DA]:* Improved an issue where multi-page PDF files containing large images could load very slowly, only partially, or not at all in the viewer.
- AIP Generation* [RDM]*: Improved network error handling that could prevent Archival Information Packages (AIPs) from being generated for very large files, making large-file AIP generation more resilient to transient connection issues.
- Dataset Versioning *[RDM]*: Fixed an issue where metadata changes were not reflected in the corresponding DataCite DOI record. DOI metadata now stays in sync when records are updated via versioning
- Batch Uploader *[DA, ILS, IR, RDM]*: Fixed an issue where the batch uploader could return a Gateway Timeout error for CSV files, improving reliability of large batch imports.
- *Submission Dashboards - Drafts [IR, RDM]*: Fixed an issue where, for a user's very first saved (but not yet submitted) submission, the "Drafts" tab on their Submission Dashboard could take anywhere from several minutes to a full day to appear. It now appears promptly.
- Record Deletion* [ILS]*: Fixed an issue where records marked for deletion with a trailing space in the deletion indicator could get stuck in the orphaned records list instead of being properly removed.
- Brief View - Call Numbers* [ILS]*: Fixed an issue where the call number failed to display in Brief View whenever the underlying MARC field included a linking subfield.
- MARCXML Export *[DA, ILS, IR]*: Fixed an inconsistency where certain MARC fields could unpredictably be missing from a record's MARCXML export, even when configured to be visible to authorized users. Exports now consistently reflect field visibility settings.
- Circulation - Barcodes *[ILS]*: Fix for items whose barcodes end with a plus sign, addressing cases where such barcodes were handled incorrectly during renewal and other circulation actions.
- File Management* [IR, RDM, DA]**:* Fixed an issue where files removed from a record via "Delete all versions" could remain visibly linked on the record page (shown with a "DELETED" label) for a period of time after deletion
- Audio/Video Player *[RDM, DA]*: Previously, the audio and video players automatically paused whenever the player scrolled out of view or the browser tab lost focus. This behavior is now configurable.
- Cite Tool Accessibility *[DA, ILS, IR, RDM]*: Added proper accessible labels to the citation style and language dropdowns and the "Copy Citation" button in the Cite Tool, improving usability for screen reader users.
- Audio Transcription *[DA]*: Improvements to the audio transcription workflow to support MP3 streaming without file transcoding.
- Media Subtitles *[DA]*: Fixed an issue where certain subtitle file formats were rejected with an "unsupported format" error that could interrupt subtitle processing.
- SSO Password Change Prevention *[DA, ILS, IR, RDM]*: Fixed account settings, so SSO-managed users can no longer attempt to edit fields (like nickname/password) that should be controlled by the SSO provider, without impacting local users' ability to edit their own account details.
