-...+September was another busy month for VuFind development, with a large number of issues both opened and resolvedMuch of the work revolved around updates and bug fixes, but some new features include the ability to [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/1645|tag favorites lists]] (in addition to the resources within those lists), [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/1667|improved lightbox keyboard accessibility]], and [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/1679|new options for displaying covers of unavailable items]]. Significant work has also been done on the new [[https://github.com/vufind-org/vufind/pull/1581|record versions feature]], slated for inclusion in release 7.1. 
 + 
 +The month culminated in the [[community:conferences:summit_2020|International VuFind Summit 2020]], which had ten featured speakers (plus lightning talks) and more than 100 attendees. Slides from the event are already available at the [[community:conferences:summit_2020|Summit wiki page]] and video will be posted as editing is completed. The results of the roadmapping session will also be discussed on a near-future Community Call.
