An upcoming issue of Library Review will feature papers from a conference held last year in London, Breaking the Barriers 2009 (http://www.openlibraries.eu/?page_id=48). We are interested in getting other perspectives on the applications of open source software in libraries: case studies, new applications, cost-benefit studies etc. Please get in contact with any proposals for papers you may have.
