The state of Michigan has purchased InReach to promote ILL for all 
libraries in the state (public, academic, school, etc.).  As part of 
this project, Innovative is supposed to provide NCIP responder 
services, including direct consortial borrowing - profile 3.  I do 
not have information on all the specifics at this time, but i know 
that Endeavor has created a product called InterCirc to work with 
InReach.  InterCirc is on my list of things to investigate at ALA 
Midwinter.  The target date for delivery of NCIP in InReach for 
Michigan is July 2006.
