[Koha] Federated OPAC for two or more Koha instances

[Ere Maijala]

Hi,

One option is to use a separate discovery service to do that. We have a
large installation based on VuFind (https://vufind.org/vufind/) to
accomplish that. We actually have hundreds of libraries in addition to
museums and archives in the system, and it works pretty well. The idea
is that the records are indexed to VuFind's Solr index where the search
happens, and then availability, patron services etc. can be provided
e.g. with Koha's ILS-DI APIs.

Regards,
Ere
