A description is given of the library testing program and results obtained to date in efforts to establish the library performance for a variety of important LMFBR core and shield applications. Calculational experience to date is summarized, including CSEWG Phase II data testing, comparisons of processed cross sections to measurements of gamma-ray production cross sections, RDD processing methods testing, and comparison of calculations to measurements of dose through thick steel/sodium/steel shields.
