David Weinburger is perhaps the original "superpatron". He has long taken an interest in library matters, particularly classification. In this post at his blog, Joho the Blog, he walks you through the Endeca-enabled presentation of the North Carolina State University library's catalog that so many in our community have blogged about (including Lorcan and Superpatron Edward Velmetti.)
It's always interesting to read outsiders' takes on library innovation, particularly if the outsiders are thoughtful as David and Edward are.

Definitely good input. One of the casualty of working with such poor products profession-wide is there's really very little search expertise when it comes to ILS's. So add a silk dress, but who knows how to iron it...
I find it amusing that I, as a card-carrying library patron for 35 years (since elementary school), am an "outsider".
