Released 2021 Aug 30 (build: 45.10.23)
MFA: New option to only require full login every 30 days
System Administrators: In Administration Settings > Governance > Manage Login Credentials, System Admins can now enable a setting in the Multi-Factor Authentication workflow that will allow users to trust a specific device or browser for 30 days.
When logging in from their trusted source during this period, users will not be required to enter an MFA code each time (unlike the current workflow, where it is required every 24 hours).
Library: Commenting permissions added to Volume Settings (Google-integrated orgs only/gradual rollout)
Category Librarians for Google-integrated orgs will soon be able to give all viewers of a Volume commenting permissions on any collaborative Google items in that Volume (via the Volume's Info screen).
NOTE: This feature will have a staggered release and should be rolled out to all Google-integrated orgs by the end of the year.

PLUS: 52 other bug fixes and/or performance enhancements.

Release cycle theme: Sweet treats
Did you know that back in the mid-1700s, the common gelatin “jelly” dessert was originally made by purifying the extracted gelatin from the foot of a calf?
It was called calf's foot jelly (because in the 18th century, there was no such thing as being "too transparent") and it would usually be seasoned with sugar, lemon juice and mixed spices. Enterprising chefs would even use items such as violet juice, saffron, and spinach to color gelatin while it set and then would layer different hues together. It was this unique preparation that came to simply be called jelly, and it started the path that would eventually lead to the commercial gelatin products of today, such as the offerings from the iconic Jell-O brand.
And it's a good thing gelatin finally got some corporate branding in there, if only for the benefit of college parties everywhere. Because "lime Jello shots" sounds way more appealing than "spinach-infused calf's foot jelly shots" ever could.
