K. Hurley and D. Gotz, on behalf of the INTEGRAL AO-6 SGR
collaboration, report:

INTEGRAL carried out a ToO observation of SGR 0501+4516 from
2008-08-27T00:46 to 2008-08-29T13:36 (GCN 8131).  A very preliminary
analysis of the data indicates that IBIS/ISGRI detected the quiescent
X-ray emission at the 2 mCrab level between 20 and 40 keV.  At least
four bursts were detected, at

We would like to thank the INTEGRAL project for their support
and particularly Dominique Eckert and Volker Beckmann for the
quick-look analysis.
