 +===== Introduction ===== 
 + 
 +The deduplication feature allows multiple records from multiple sources to be combined together and displayed as a single search result. It requires some extra setup and external tools to fully implement. Users who choose not to use deduplication may instead wish to configure the [[configuration:record_versions|Record Versions]] feature, which offers a different method for associating related records. (It is also possible for the Deduplication and Record Versions features to be used to complement one another).

-VuFind includes support for displaying deduplicated records. This requires that records are deduplicated before indexing into Solr, and that a so called merged record is created for each dedup group (group of original duplicate records) alongside the original records. [[https://github.com/KDK-Alli/RecordManager|RecordManager]] can be used for deduplication as it has built-in support for VuFind-compatible deduplication, but VuFind doesn't require RecordManager to be used, just some index fields and the merged record to be present.+VuFind® includes support for displaying deduplicated records.
