First installation was about a year ago. We recently started testing VUFind in-house for usability as a replacement for Voyager OPAC. I am in charge of the installation, customization, etc.

Longer term availability
The library is committed to implementing VUFind as soon as it is feasible. This is a slow process because I am solely responsible for it right now, though that will change as we near production. I can dedicated several hours per week to VUFind as a part of my job.

What skills can bring to the project, other than development skills and the areas of expertise mentioned above?
I am primarily a cataloger, though I perform a lot of duties that would normally fall to a Systems Librarian. I have a very good understanding of how Voyager's database structure works and how that connects to the MARC record.
Briefly describe your experience on similar projects:
None
Anything else you'd like to add?
I would view my work in the admin group as primarily being a voice for catalogers (and uers) and to lend my expertise to the group in that respect. However, I can handle basic coding well enough to understand the developer side of the conversation as well.
