Jeff -

Here at Miami U. in Oxford, Ohio we did a small pilot project where we embedded QR codes on a set of the top circulated books in our library.  When scanned the codes link to a mobile page dedicated to that book which then connects users to things like:

books by the same author (in the mobile catalog)
books on the same subject (" " ")
articles on the subject through ebsco's mobile platform
book reviews if available

i'll have someone take a look at the stats, but i think for a true gauge of its efficacy they need to placed on a much larger swath of the collection…

Hi, Doing something truly unique and noteworthy in the mobile or ereader
space? I’d love to hear and spread the word about it! I’m talking about things
beyond a mobile presence and/or lending iPads or ereaders, looking for more
unique and/or cutting edge. Anyone care to share?
