Here is some MyLibrary at NCState news.

First of all, here at the University Libraries of Notre Dame we have
recently conducted and analyzed sets of focus group interviews in an effort
to learn what problems our community has when it comes to accessing digital
information. The results of these interviews are available here:

  http://dewey.library.nd.edu/focusgroup/plan.shtml

As a result of our analysis, we here at the Libraries plan to explore the
implementation of the MyLibrary application/system in the coming months.

Second, and more importantly, the MyLibrary open source software project
home page is moving to the following address:

  http://dewey.library.nd.edu/mylibrary/

This move is based on mutual consent between the North Carolina State
University Libraries and the University Libraries of Notre Dame. In the
coming week or so a new release will be made available including more secure
patron identification, limited support for operating as an Open Archives
Initiative (OAI) repository, XML/RDF output, real-time statistical
reporting, and of course, a few bug fixes. Please consider getting involved
by joining the mailing list:
