(try it on your mobile phones!)

App Description:

Biblioteka can be seen as the "Penn's Google Maps for Books." You can search for books through our Android or web app, and it will browse and display the results from the Penn Libraries, Penn Bookcenter, Amazon, and JStor. Furthermore, clicking on book results from the Penn libraries will bring up an image of where exactly in the library the book is, and using our default map option will bring up a google map of where the book can be found on Penn campus. All these features are designed specifically to facilitate Penn students to easily find the books they need.

This was designed at PennApps 2011 competition within 40 hours. Brought to you by Jinyan Cao, Stefan Zhelyazkov, Alex Zhang.
