We report the detection of a new outburst of the millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934. IGR J00291+5934 was previously found during an outburst in 2004 to be an accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar with a pulse period of 1.67 ms and an orbital period of 2.46 hr (ATEL #352, #353, #354, #355, #356, #357,#360,#361, #363, #364, #365, #366, #369). The outburst lasted about 2 weeks as observed in the X-ray and optical bands (ATEL #363, #365).
