We have done this - we call it MyLibrary - for our two catalogs, two ILLiad implementations, and course reserves. We wanted to add in room reservations, but the vendor we use does not include what rooms you have checked out in their API. We're now looking at what else to add, so I would also

I created an experimental web app to move in this direction when I was at the TMC Library, although we didn't implement it. It was a modest start (it kept track of links that had been used and offered them back up to the user, with an algorithm built in to try and avoid the "click here" naming

Re: [CODE4LIB] personalization of academic library websites

We have focused on pulling in people's personal stuff from our disparate systems, so they don't have to know which catalog a book was checked out from, or even if it checked out from one of our libraries or via ILL. So far the response has been favorable - particularly the option to renew all

I can remember putting schema.org markup around the location information for lib.ncsu.edu, and it's still there, checkout the footer. One small example anyway. I'm not sure that it's actually had any effects though - I don't see it in search engine results though and it's been there for probably
