For more than a decade, the VuFind Community has been building the most flexible and feature-rich open source discovery system for libraries all over the world. While having our center at Falvey Memorial Library (Villanova University, Philadelphia) the community is international and many activities take place in national and local communities. In this year’s Virtual VuFind Summit we want to bring together the international community despite the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting restrictions in traveling and social distancing - not to mention the health risks - in order to share our knowledge both within the community and with interested librarians and other potential new adopters. | For more than a decade, the VuFind Community has been building the most flexible and feature-rich open source discovery system for libraries all over the world.
