This is great. Thanks to all who've posted responses; and others, please, continue to chime in. Moving the conversation forward, I'd be interested in hearing from folks who have moved to consortial management of (e.g.) their OPAC, but not any of these other services (publishing, repositories, etc) because consortial solutions are not available, not up to snuff, too expensive, etc. If more/better/cheaper consortial services were available, would you be interested in migrating any of your in-house-managed services out of the library? Are there other factors at play that deserve mention?
