Several Minnesota library systems running Evergreen are using it with our
state wide ReShare based system.

ReShare uses NCIP LookupUser for authentication with password checking.

I put all of the changes we needed into an omnibus bug report to keep track
of them.

It seems to be working quite well at this point.  ReShare harvests our
records using OAI-PMH with some tweaks to only serve up records from a bib
record bucket.  And uses Z39.50 requests to double check availability when
a hold is placed... although OAI-PMH could take care of that as well if
ReShare supported it.

One gotcha is that there is no standard 852 tag format between marc_dump,
Z39.50/SRU, Web marc export,

All my NCIP testing notes with reshare, with example messages and notes on
how the workflow of each message works is shared here, Evergreen NCIP -
Index Data - Reshare
