Our consortium is investigating the products Deb mentioned as well as
options for further enhancing our existing Ex Libris Aleph OPACs in the

http://hickory.palni.edu:4505/F/?func=file&file_name=find-b&local_base=plnamp
Do a keyword search and view the results page (testing feature, still in

LibraryThing, Scriblio, VuFind, etc.).
