I was helping a department in the college set up a custom search directory and recorded the steps I took in case anyone else would like to do something simliar.  Here are the videos (about 25 minutes total)

1. Create a custom post type and any custom taxonomies you need using wp-types.
2. Create custom fields for your taxonomy type.
3. Create a custom view for your custom post type.
4. Create a custom view for the archive, or a table listing for the directory.
5. Hide un-needed items using adminimize and set up better search using relevanssi.

As a reminder, you can post any questions you have on the support forums.  I’d love to see how you are using wp-types and wp-views on your own sites as well!
