My previous place of employment, Loyola Law School ( http://www.lls.edu/resources/library/), switched to Terminal 4 about 4 years ago, it was selected by the HR department for the entire campus. The Library had a lot of problems tailoring it to the needs of the Library, and in my opinion pretty much any library that is forced into predesigned templates will never really have a user friendly website. One of the bigger problems is the huge header menu that was forced on every department. Shortly before I left, the Law School hired a full time Drupal developer to create a Drupal intranet and additional webpages that were not able to be made in Terminal 4 (If I remember correctly php and javascript were not supported). This was 4 years ago and I am sure a lot of things have changed so I encourage you to check out their website and if you are seriously considering Terminal 4 I can put you in touch with several people that still work there.
