It wasn't me - I'm just a patron of the public library (I'm not a public librarian, I just play one at the university). My impression is that it doesn't have lot of uptake but a few loyal enthusiasts, which I guess is typical of personalized services on library websites. I don't know what administrative arrangements they've made - whether the submissions are screened, and if so by whom and how. I can put you in touch with the webmaster if you'd like to follow up.

In general, do you get the impression the review service is well received by your patrons? -- Eric Lease Morgan University Libraries of Notre Dame
