          Application 09/354,814                                                      

          cylinders (130 and 134) of storage cells 132, is a plurality of             
          libraries as the appellants have defined the term on page 1 of              
          the specification.                                                          
               Consequently, we concur in the examiner’s findings of fact             
          that appellants’ representative claim 1 lacks novelty over the              
          Moy disclosure.  The rejection on appeal is affirmed.                       
               No time period for taking any subsequent action in                     
          connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR
