Post comments regarding this morning breakout session presented by Marianne Gaunt, Grace Agnew, and Christopher Sterback (Rutgers). How is this project different from other similar projects and where are we now? Marianne mentioned that RU is thinking about becoming a build partner on the Mellon project. Grace reminded us that going Open Source (OS) does not save us money. Also, that you won't necessarily get every customization in an OLS that you want. So why go OS?- The MARC format does not work well for digital resources.
