You know....

UW has a database for libraries that it uses called "Willow" that runs
under AIXVAXVMSHPPUX or something like that. It even has a Winblows
client. This database handles 5 Million volumes in our library of
congress repository. It's really pretty cool.

The Willow client source is available for X. Methinks I have another
project to add to a never shrinking list of projects.
