Please excuse any duplication.  Please forward to other interested 
colleagues and listservs.

This is a call for articles for a special issue of _Library Hi Tech_, 
whose focus will be on new-look and open-source OPAC solutions.  The 
editor of this special issue is looking for innovative and interesting 
ways that libraries are either adding 3rd party software front-ends to 
their OPACs, 3rd party software back-ends that power-use structured 
metadata, or open-source OPAC replacements as add-ons or are totally 
reconstructed for new uses and applications of the structured metadata. 
Applications that focus on user needs, user ease-of-use, and Library 2.0 
ideas are especially encouraged.

If you are interested in submitting an article, please send a short 
proposal, discussing the topic and a suggested title, to the email below 
by March 30, 2008.  Draft articles are due to the editor by October 1, 
2008.  Inquiries and questions are also welcome.
