Dear all, I recently moved to the Netherlands and found out that many libraries use the services of a private company to get help with the selection of books to buy. Every week libraries receive a list of newly published titles with a summary of their content. I was wondering how popular this kind of service is in other countries/states. Do you know of anything similar in your country/state?
