The National Library of Australia has set up Library Labs:

The aim of this wiki space, which we are calling Library Labs, is to let our friends and colleagues know what we are doing, to invite comments, questions and feedback and to provide a space for discussion and collaboration.

We are particularly interested in forming a community of Australian business analysts and developers who are working on similar problems and who are interested in interoperable, standards-based solutions that can foster the development of a national information infrastructure. We are also interested in working with colleagues at an international level to provide prototypes and testbeds for new and emerging standards.

[Home - Library Labs - National Library of Australia wiki]

There are links to strategy documents and to prototypes.
