We've just passed the SMART six-month mark and celebrated half a year of collaboration and catalogue sharing between 6 major libraries. To commemorate the occasion there were two celebratory breakfasts held at Weltec and Whitireia.

Free food ensured that they were exceptionally well attended.

Some absolutely astounding statistics came out of them though...

Interlibrary reserves since Oct 10th = 31,889

Total reserves since 10^th Oct = 179,117

Total SMART loans since 10^th Oct = 1,792,614

That's in just six months! It's quite possible the world could run out of books before we hit a full year...
