I did a lot of work on a product called LOIS, which has been
purchased by PAXUS Software in New Zealand.  Their number is +64 (4)
859-119.  

LOIS is based on BRS/Search and Informix SQL, and combines a full
MARC catalogue with circulation control and other goodies.  It is
positioned as a Corporate Library product, rather than Public
Library, and has lots of hooks for OA integration.
