We do use WP though only for library internal stuff, communicating to library staff.

Currently just a few standard WP installs, as the server they are on doesn’t do the mod_rewrite, though I’m planning to move to WP MU in the future (on a different server) as it just opens up so many more options.

I like the lincoln link you provided, exactly the sort of thing I had in mind.

What’s the name of the Google group?

Cheers
Chris

Found you via jamesclay on Twitter.

Are you running WordPress at work? We’ve been evaluating it over the last few months and our Library have their own installation of WPMU in addition to the one I run.

The GPL plugins and themes on wordpress.org/extend/ make it a really interesting and flexible platform to work with.

Have started a Google Group for people running WordPress MU in HE if you’re interested.

Cheers
