Not very interested as a cataloging source. Not interested in OCLC either as far as that goes. I might be interested in getting our records there so they are available to others for ILL, beyond that not so much. I do a lot of original cataloging. Neither service would help with that.
However, if they provide NACO support, than it might be worth joining. We can't afford OCLC, yet we have the connection to the authors in our field to contribute to NACO. It is frustrating. If there was a low cost alternative to the OCLC membership requirement for NACO we would be very interested.

Thought I'd ask this group the same question I've asked my UNC system librarians... I spent some time since the IUG conference talking with my library director and head of cataloging about it and was wondering what the interest is in it or discussion about it have been going on at the other libraries...
