We have already pointed out that the background cross sections and weighting flux are not adequate in the multigroup library VITAMIN-B6. Here we examine whether the latest multigroup libraries, VITENEA-J, VITJEFF31.BOLIB, MATJEFF31.BOLIB, V7-200N47G in SCALE6, MATXS file in ADS-2.0, HILO2k and MATXSLIB-J33, have the same problems or not. The followings are found out from simple benchmark calculations with ANISN; 1) MATXSLIB-J33 has no problem, 2) VITENEA-J, VITJEFF31.BOLIB, V7-200N47G in SCALE6 and HILO2k are produced by using an inadequate weighting flux, 3) VITJEFF31.BOLIB, MATJEFF31.BOLIB and MATXS file in ADS-2.0 have insufficient background cross section data. It is noted that the self-shielding correction in VITENEA-J, VITJEFF31.BOLIB, MATJEFF31.BOLIB, V7-200N47G in SCALE6, MATXS file in ADS-2.0 and HILO2k is not always adequate, which can lead to unexpected results.
