                                     ___________

          PATE, Administrative Patent Judge.                                          
                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   

               This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims 1                 
          through 28 and 30 through 33.  These are the only claims                    
          remaining in the application.  We note that it appears from the             
          examiner’s answer, that the examiner has included claim 29 in the           
          rejection.  However, claim 29 was canceled in paper no. 5, filed            
          November 27, 2000.                                                          
               The claimed invention is directed to a system for moving a             
          plurality of cartidges between a plurality of storage libraries.
