Contract Programmer - Consortial Search Project
University of Chicago Library
Chicago

The University of Chicago Library is seeking a programmer/consultant to work
on a contract basis. The project work will consist of extending our open
source VuFind search interface, allowing it to search the collections of our
consortial partners, and routing users to relevant consortial borrowing
options. The programmer will develop modules for VuFind, using PHP and Zend
Framework 2, which will interact with APIs for WorldCat and the Relais D2D
consortial discovery and delivery service. Code developed for this project
should be able to be integrated into the VuFind code base, so coordination
with the VuFind development community will be required.

  
Desired qualifications include:

• Experience developing with PHP frameworks (Zend Framework 2 preferred)

• Experience working with RESTful APIs

• Knowledge of library bibliographic data formats (MARC and related
structures)

• Experience working with open source communities

• Previous VuFind experience highly desirable

  
If interested, please respond to David Bietila with resume, availability, and
hourly consulting fee.
