When I was a student at the University, I built a library in the student
room and was looking for software to manage this. We now also have a library
in our hackerspace. If we could have federation-ready software and link
these two libraries that would be great. The possibility of then also
federating with nearby hackerspaces when people are travelling between
cities would also be good.

In short, this is something I'm interested in.

Iain.
