Thanks for the information on the new version VuFind. I think it might be ale to work, but I think I'm going to try PKP Harvester first.

With a little bit of XSLT tweaking (and possibly implementation of a PHP class to customize record presentation), you could probably get it to meet your needs fairly easily. If you're interested in trying this approach, I'm happy to offer more specific assistance -- just let me know!
