Browse: random old inventory selection
Utopia, but I may as well ask! I'd like to see a "highlight old inventory" selection similar to the 'recent' book feed.
This would randomly select books that have been in inventories for say more than a year and highlight them in the same way as the 'recent' feed does. The advantage of doing this would be to draw attention to books that are languishing in inventories, and hopefully have them mooched. I suspect that many books that have been in inventories for a long time are there because they're not recent fiction, possibly even bordering on the obscure. These are the books that one doesn't go searching for, but which, if brought to the attention of the right person who has points to spare, will attract moochers. The advantages would be:
- moving old inventory, therefore releasing points into circulation
- finding good homes for some books that may never return to BookMooch because they are a little specialised
- putting those books back into BM circulation when they've been read, keeping book turnover
- spending points Utopia, but maybe worth looking at? Jacquie
