+You can configure the software to use a Solr index for course reserves searching instead of the ILS driver.  This offers greater flexibility and a more attractive user interface, but it requires you to periodically reindex your data to keep the system up to date.  To configure:
-.) Edit the [Reserves] section of [[config.ini]] and set search_enabled to true.
+.) Edit the [Reserves] section of [[configuration:files:config.ini]] and set search_enabled to true.
-.) Turn on the reserves Solr core by editing solr/solr.xml to uncomment the appropriate line and then [[administration:starting_and_stopping_solr|restarting Solr]].
+.) Load data into the index by running the util/index_reserves.php tool to extract it from your ILS.  ILS extraction requires support in the [[development:plugins:ils_drivers|ILS driver]].  You can also load data from a CSV file.  See index_reserves.php parameters below for details.

+==== Multiple reserve Solr cores ====
+Starting with VuFind® 9.0, if your Solr installation has more than one core for reserves (for instance, your Solr service is used by more than one VuFind® installation), you can change the name of the reserves core by customizing the [Index] section of reserves.ini. For earlier versions of VuFind®, customizing the core name required you to override the factory of the SolrReserves search backend.
