Can you please explain what type of hierarchical data you want to use?

Also - VuFind does not yet support Shibboleth.  But this doesn't mean that it can't.  There has been some discussions on this list about interest in shibboleth.  You might want to take a look at these.

Great!  I am glad to hear that you would like to contribute to VuFind.  VuFind, in theory, should work as is without any local modifications.  But of course we hope that libraries do make local modifications to VuFind to get it to work the way they need it to.  Can you please identify some items that you think you might want to modify, then we can help you identify how to make these changes.
