Take a look at:
http://www.librarytechnology.org/discovery.pl
This is a quick-and-dirty page for getting to some of the libraries that
are working with next-gen products.
You may see some libraries that have indicated that they have acquired
one of the products, but it may not quite be public.
If I'm missing any major products on the list, just let me know. Please
also let me know of libraries using these products that are missing from
the results.
