BiblioRoll is a handy-in-sized device shaped circular cylinder, with a display divided into three tiers. The users can see the information on a display inside the body as they rotate a circumference of the cylindrical body. It is possible to display different information on each tier. With these interfaces of the device, they can put unique metadata on the book data to relate with the information dealt with this device. The users can manipulate physically and browse with this cylindrical input/output interface.
