Harvard Library uses Drupal as of last summer. I did not even know about the existing Drupal libraries / module lists until your email, so thanks. One of the big challenges has been a module for library hours. We outsourced that and ended up with a solution that was not tenable. We are now looking at the opening_hours module developed for the Copenhagen Public Libraries. There is also interest in an online exhibit tool, among other things.

We could use your collective help with the following: *1. What communication/support/networking venues are out there for Drupal developers in libraries? *We know about/have participated in: -the drupal4lib mailing list -the ALA LITA Drupal Interest Group -the Libraries group on drupal.org: http://groups.drupal.org/libraries -the drupalib web site: http://drupalib.interoperating.info/ ...did we miss any? *2. Does anyone know of a comprehensive, up-to-date list of library-specific contributed modules?* There's this one: http://drupalib.interoperating.info/library_modules ...but it was last updated in March 2012; And this one: https://groups.drupal.org/libraries/modules ...which feels incomplete. I've made a couple for trainings I've done, but they're out of date now, too. :) Thanks in advance! *3. Does anyone know of any installation profiles and/or Drupal distributions that have been created for libraries,* AND: if you know of any, have they been officially contributed back to d.o? Also, *4: Chris and I are trying to brainstorm ideas for better communication/collaboration regarding library-specific Drupal development-any ideas?* Success stories to share, either in library/non-profit/other environments? How can we promote adoption/use/growth of Drupal in library environments? How could we better collaborate to save one another time, and what projects/products does the Drupal library community need? (Okay, so that was, like, questions 4-7, but anyway.) Thanks in advance! Nina Nina McHale @ninermac Developer Aten Design Group http://atendesigngroup.com
