Open Source Software in Libraries
I am working on some very very broad research on open source use in libraries for a book I'm working on. The focus of the book will be on software you can use that is open source. If you have a chance to answer this brief survey to help me out that would be greatly appreciated: http://opensource.web2learning.net/limesurvey/index.php?sid=63946&lang=en Thanks a bunch!!!

Nicole: About 12-18 months ago some grad student associated with one of the library associations (yea, I know that's vague) did a very similar project with an online survey, etc. I think I even got a report summary which I will try to dig up from an old Thunderbird account (Zimbra is great!) and forward to you. If you want me to I can repost your email to a tech list for a bunch of Missouri school and library tech support people (a lot of the schools are on break right now, however, so they are laying out on Cocoa Beach).

This has been covered in the library literature very recently. See esp. the April 2009 issue of Library Technology Reports, and the Feb 2009 issue of Computers in Libraries. Not sure if the full-text is available online or not. Note that EBSCO provides free access to the Library, Information Science & Technology Abstracts (LISTA) database via http://www.libraryresearch.com. Good luck!
