having the overdrive app open up with "here are the best sellers, here are the most popular"..., just worsens that short term demand for what's hot, but that no one will care about in a few months time
there's a lack of smart, joined up thinking
what we get now is more like if the netflix home screen had "here's list of great movies that you can't watch right now "
the lending apps should be promoting stuff that's in stock, on shelves, being ignored!
or the libraries need to cut different deals which lets them meet demand more effectively
