[...] Just a few different things I wanted to post about:@ cplWe rolled out a couple minor new features this week in our website and opac.Hot Titles - We have a new list of our top 20 most popular books (including an RSS feed naturally). This list is based on the number of holds on books. I stole the idea from John Blyberg and he was kind enough to provide me with feedback on the process.
