This session will describe one institution’s experience migrating from VuFind to Locate and will provide the roadmap for future development of the Locate discovery OPAC.

Locate is a relatively new discovery option for FOLIO. Upon its original roll-out, Locate included a clean design and sophisticated real time availability and patron empowerment features. Since its original rollout, Locate has seen dramatic enhancements, including search improvements, result list enhancements, item view additions, and numerous new patron empowerment features. Upcoming enhancements include semiannual releases, additional patron tools, subject browse, and call number browse enhancements. Come hear from the EBSCO Discovery Product Manager for Locate about the future direction and roadmap of this discovery option.

In addition, learn of one institution’s experience migrating from VuFind to Locate. Skidmore College was an early adopter of FOLIO and used VuFind as its “classic catalog” for several years prior to the development of Locate. Skidmore fully implemented Locate in early 2025. Migration tips, suggestions, and real-world feedback will be provided.
