Villanova, Pennsylvania - October 2, 2017 - Version 4.1 of the VuFind Open

recent 4.0 release with several significant new features.

Some key additions:

permission-related behaviors.

- A new "theme mix-in" feature to make sharing third-party extensions to VuFind 
easier.

- Built in support for Third Iron's BrowZine service, useful for adding a 
"journal titles" box to Bento-style searching.

- Improvements to several ILS drivers, including the addition of a more 
full-featured "SierraRest" driver.

- A new Galician translation, as well as improvements to many other language 
files.

- New developer-oriented improvements, including a default Vagrant 
configuration for easy testing and incorporation of the "Whoops" error handler 
for faster troubleshooting and debugging.

enhancements and minor improvements have been incorporated.
