About VuFind
VuFind is a library resource portal designed and developed for libraries by libraries. The goal of VuFind is to enable your users to search and browse through all of your library's resources by replacing the traditional OPAC to include:
Catalog Records
Digital Library Items
Institutional Repository
Institutional Bibliography
Other Library Collections and Resources
VuFind is completely modular, so you can implement just the basic system or all of the components. Since it's open source, you can modify or add modules to best fit your needs. A wide range of configurable options allow extensive customization without changing any code.
Power
VuFind runs on Solr Energy. Apache Solr, an open source search engine, offers amazing performance and scalability to allow for VuFind to respond to search queries in milliseconds time. It has the ability to be distributed if you need to spread the load of the catalog over many servers or in a server farm environment.
Licensing
VuFind is offered for free through the GPL open source license. This means that you can use the software for free. You can modify the software and share your successes with the community!
