چکیده
With the increase of digital information practices (e.g. online search, desktop publishing, electronic reference management, etc.) in the academic context, printed books are sometimes cumbersome to integrate into the digital workflow.

The application also provides recommenddations for thematically related books, to promote the discovery of other relevant books that are available in the local library.
