Sequels to successful Hollywood movies (not to mention prequels) are notoriously hit and miss. For every The Empire Strikes Back, Aliens, and Wrath of Kahn you have The Phantom Menace, Alien Resurrection, and The Final Frontier. (Yes, I do<\/em> watch a lot of sci-fi. Why do you ask?)<\/span><\/p>

User Interfaces has just produced our very own sequel, a companion to our thrilling 2011 debut, Resource Discovery Systems at the UNT Libraries<\/em>. We call this one: Resource Discovery Systems at the UNT Libraries: Phase Two Action Plan<\/em>. <\/span><\/p>

Think of it as more of a continuation than a full-blown sequel. The original outlined a grand, multi-phased RDS implementation vision and then detailed an action plan for just the first phase. After Phase One, we said that we would revisit our vision, update it based on our experiences, and develop a concrete action plan for Phase Two. As astute readers may have already guessed, this is that plan. <\/span>We hope that you find it worthy of its predecessor\u2014<\/span>something like, <\/span>Part 2: The Users Strike Back<\/em>,<\/span> <\/em>rather than <\/span>Part 2: Discovery Boogaloo<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>
