Done

  • Fixed an accessibility issue #7997

  • Reduced page weight added by images #7976

  • Requesting: made date select available behind the Enables pick up date functionality toggle #7961

  • Made the decision to use GA4 when Universal Analytics sunsets #7959

  • Update the featured stories ID to "The Roots of a Scientist" #7999

  • Use Inter font on the web site #8009. The benefits are: Performance

    • Loading Inter is only one network request rather than two for for Helvetica regular/bold

    • File size is 34kb down from 224kb for Helvetica UX

    • Helvetica was responsible for a lot of visual jank – the page would load, then we’d have to wait for the font to load before re-aligning a lot of elements

    • Inter has been designed for computer screens so there’s improved legibility over Helvetica (and it still has the language and diacritic support that we require)

  • Redirect search.wellcomelibrary.org to wellcomecollection.org #5533

  • Look up works with items that are unidentified #442

  • Catalogue API crashes if it gets non-numeric input for the 'color' parameter #5529

  • Store data for the API in an opaque field in the format in which it is served #5449

  • Add a regression test for the ImageCard component #8008

Focusing on next

  • Hybrid events: enable users to book tickets for live and online

  • Get multi-level Sierra hierarchies deployed
