The ShelvAR app promises to make the life of a librarian a whole lot easier. The augmented reality app enables librarians to easily see which books are out of place. The ShelvAR app places a digital checkmark on books that are in the right spot and a digital red "X" on ones that to be relocated to their proper shelf.
The ShelvAR -- which is available exclusively for Android devices -- is super-simple to use. Staff launch the app and point the camera of the device at a shelf to see if any of the books are out of place and need to be moved.
