Abstract As part of an optical monitoring project of low-mass X-ray binaries (Lewis et al. 2008, http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008AIPC.1010..204L), we report on recent observations just prior to, and during the current outburst of the millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934 (ATel #1660, #1664, #1665). The field of the source was observed with the 2-m robotic Faulkes Telescope North, at Haleakala on Maui on August 3, 9, 15 and 16, so far.
