VuFind, touting itself as “The Library OPAC meets Web 2.0”, has been released. It is an open-source OPAC replacement that works for Voyager integrated library system (ILS) for now — they are planning to expand to other ILSs soon.
This is great… there are a growing number of choices out there for libraries, and many of the most promising are open source. What we, as libraries, get for this: lower costs, greater choice, easier customization, and the task of choosing and implementing all of this. We, and our patrons, will benefit greatly from these trends.
