Would be extremely awesome if university libraries could be hooked up and I could select a book on amazon and they'd approve it. The current ordering system here takes long and the books are usually more expensive, too.
Same goes for our procurement department. You find stuff on amazon (or other sites) and they just order it somewhere else for more money and it takes forever. I think I'll have a talk with them. They could essentially outsource the procurement to the employees (who'd gladly do it) and would only have to approve/deny stuff.
The current process for standard stuff is pretty much "found it on amazon, sent a link, they ordered it somewhere else after x-time"
