I wish it would stop popping up on librarians lists of "current" things. I do think that the OPAC stuff is a little too prominent, but it's understandable after the buzz created by NCSU. Kudos for those who are thinking about preservation of digital objects. It's been a big topic for years, but few libraries seem to be addressing it in a serious way. “Graphic Novels – Graphic novels are becoming a dignified format”
