I believe that allow library users to rate and review books is useful idea. It allows other users of the library to find out what other people think of particularly books and use this as effective bottom-up way of evaluating item quality and provides a way of seeing if other library users are interested in the item.
I believe it is in the best interest of libraries to make this tool available because of the great benefits it provides to their clients.
My local library uses this service to a limited extent. Library users can review book and search by review but reviews are otherwise not automatically displayed.
Hi William:
ReplyDeleteit's a good idea to use book review service in libraries. It gives a reference for readers to evaluate the items quality.
