We are pleased to announce that the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation has awarded
the University of Rochester River Campus Libraries a grant to support Phase
2 of the eXtensible Catalog Project.

During Phase 2 of the eXtensible Catalog Project, the XC Project Team at the
University of Rochester, together with XC Partner Institutions, will develop
the XC software, a set of open-source applications to provide libraries with
an alternative way to reveal their collections to library users.
