Million Dollar Idea

You know how, when you hear about a movie that you think you’ll like, you can go stick it in your netflix or blockbuster queue, right?

Well, I want the same thing for library books. I want a website where I can queue up books that I’m interested in reading. I want that website to be linked to my local library system’s database. When I’m finished with a book, I want to be able to pop it in my mailbox & have the mailman return it to the library for me. Then, when the librarian checks it in, she sends out the next book available in my queue. If it’s an interlibrary loan book, she could have the librarian at the other library do the shipping.

Now, to find a venture capitalist :D

  1. Not to burst your bubble but here we have an online site for our libraries. I just log on and search for a book I want to read and it’s put into a queque for me.

  2. We can put them on hold, on line, but we don’t have a nice queue that I can throw books on, like I throw movies on & have them just sit there acting as reminders until I am ready for them.
