Nice job, Jason :) I think LibraryOn may be a good concept for academic libraries -- but in the public library it seems like LibraryOn would work even better when the patron is NOT in the library. The vast majority of our customers' use of our web site and databases is when they're at home or work. How cool would it be if they could do a Google or Amazon search, or be browsing the LA Times web site, and have LibraryOn pop up and say, oh, BTW, do you want to reserve that book at the library? Or read that article online?
