The Open Library Environment (OLE) Project is planning a community-designed, open-source alternative to the traditional integrated library system. With funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, a multinational group of libraries is convening the library community to develop a design for a next-generation library system using Service Oriented Architecture and open source technologies. Representatives from several participating libraries will discuss OLE Project activities to date, solicit feedback from attendees and describe ways that others interested in the project can get involved.
