We use BrowZine at Lesley.  We’ve found that faculty and graduate students love it.  It’s visually appealing, does the best job of replicating browsing in the physical environment, and is simple yet comprehensive to use.

 

If you show potential users your bookshelf, they will immediately look for the search box.  If you show them journals titles that they would care about instead, they fall in love almost immediately!

Is anybody using the app Browzine right now?  If so, can you give me a review of it?  I heard someone mention it on the listserv and I thought it sounded interesting.
