ILS Inventory
ILS Inventory has just been released. It will take some work to get it going at your institution. "This project is meant to be more or less self-serve; i.e. it will probably almost work for you out of the box, but will need some hacking."
We have just released a PHP/symfony application for processing the inventory of ILS item, under the new BSD license. This is great for those of us with an ILS that can do data export, but lacks an inventory module. Code is included for importing items from III export files, as well as checking LC shelf-order.
