Day 2 started with some presentations on using web services (Voyager WS for instance), using jQuery to delivery bookbag services, and approaches to integrating collections from multiple catalogs into a single vufind instance.

Eric Morgan talked for a few moments about pulling quantitative data from bibliographic and full text information to enable post-discovery analysis of resources. He has a great overview of his experiments at Eric’s blog.

The morning wrapped up with breakout sessions on the specific features/directions for the next version of vufind. There were about 20 high level items (plug-in architecture, added data types, administration and installation platforms, etc.) that are going to be pulled together and discussed.

Following lunch the group discussed governance, leveraging available resources, and ‘whats next.’
