My first thoughts:
- It looks _really_ great. I'm not super familiar with the interfaces that librarians have to use, but I can't imagine it looks or feels as nice as this. When the kinks are worked out, I can definitely see this being great.
- Upon first login, I'm REALLY confused. This first dashboard is way overwhelming. Perhaps a tutorial on first run, or don't show the widgets unless there's some data.
- There should definitely be a way to import books. There may be a standard library format, if not use CSV. Almost all libraries will already have a system that does this. The only way you will convince them to change is if the migration process is easy.
- The rows in the catalog view widget seem to get big enough to fill the widget. When you don't have many books, it looks weird. Probably better to set these as a fixed height.
- Make the entire row for a book clickable. The whole row gets a cursor icon, but only clicking the text takes me to the next page.
- Deep linking doesn't work
- When I add a book manually, the ID doesn't seem to stick. I entered "22222", and now I can't find that anywhere.
- CoverSwish is really cheesy. Technology for the sake of technology.
- There seems to be an image field on books, but I can't find where to upload an image
- The whole app is _really_ slow. Currently I'm hung and can't get back in. I guess I'll end my review here.
