*Apologies for cross-posting *

We're working on a tool for our library website that will allow users to save a catalog entry, a link to a journal or database, or an article citation, for future use. There are a variety of names for this kind of tool (Favorites, Saved Items, Save for Later, Bookshelf, and so on), and I'd like to learn a bit from what you've done.  While many licensed databases and other web sites have this mechanism, I'm particularly interested in library-built systems.

The survey should take less than 3 minutes to complete:

Please feel free to share with others as appropriate. I'm happy to summarize the results of the survey after it closes on February 20.
