On January 12, 2006, the NCSU Libraries announced the first library deployment of a revolutionary new online catalog. Leveraging the advanced search and Guided Navigation® capabilities of the Endeca ProFind™ platform, the NCSU Libraries' new catalog provides the speed and flexibility of popular online search engines while capitalizing on existing catalog records. As a result, students, faculty, and researchers can now search and browse the NCSU Libraries' collection as quickly and easily as searching and browsing the Web, while taking advantage of rich content and cutting-edge capabilities that no Web search engine can match. http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/endeca/
Phoenix Public Library has also gone this route...as the first public library to do this.
Check out their Home Page "Search", which searches catalog, website, and library programs.
* This is more on new technology than web 2.0.
