Canadian Federal Natural Resources Department selects Open Source library system

This is old news from February, but I seemed to have missed it: the NRCan (Federal Natural Resources ministry in Canada) libraries have chosen the Open Source Evergreenintegrated library system (ILS). Kudos to my colleague George Duimovich and others at the NRCan library. Here is the opening search interface. It is great to see sensible Web 2.0 and Open Source choices can be made in such organizations.
