In a recent article in Fast Company, confusingly entitled "That Hot Librarian Fantasy? A New App Makes it Even Hotter," a new Android app is introduced which scans shelves with the intent of pointing out books that are shelved out of order.
Marvelous idea - everyone in a library nowadays is pressed for time, but it kind of made me wonder about a comment made by the directory of the library I worked in twenty some years ago - that finding library pages acquainted with alphabetical order is tough nowadays.
Libraries are changing fast, but if everything is automatic, can't Rosie the Robot run things?
