Please ask away!
You'll want to sit down with your Librarian at this stage and see how they
want stuff set up. It's much better to try it, refine it, then do it again if
needs be then set stuff up only to find out that they want it totally
different. VM is a nice way to go for that, since you can exploderate your less
than desireable outcomes at a tiny penalty.
Reading the cataloguing bit of the manual may help, or it may induce
nausea.
