Bibliotek 2.0

Hyllan för de nya böckerna har fått en motsvarighet på webben, kika på ACPL’s bookwall med klickbara bokomslag som leder till mer info i deras opac. Fiffigt!

Så här skriver Ian på bibliotekets blog:

Allen County Public Library has recently launched a Web feature that casts browsing in a whole new light. Sean Robinson, head of IT Services at ACPL, created a mashup of book covers and information for the books cataloged at ACPL yesterday.

This is the new browsing:

When you click on the cover of a book, you get information about it - on a little graphic of an old-fashioned library catalog card (the idea for which Sean got from John Blyberg, of http://www.blyberg.net/).
