Mid-Columbia Libraries has done an extraordinary amount of customization to their PowerPAC. In addition, MCL has used the Polaris API to provide extensive discovery features right on their Drupal home page. This site is an excellent example of how far you can go with your customizations and/or custom API implementations.
Richland Library has accomplished some of the most sophisticated customization work we’ve seen. Their website features a fully responsive web design and Richland has used the Polaris API to integrate a lot of searching and PAC functionality right into the home page.
TRAC was one of the first Polaris consortia covering such a wide geographical area. TRAC has always been a progressive site, particularly given the challenges of serving a multi-type, multi-system consortium spread across a large region.
