• search (interface)
• users (access how and who?)

framework

• simple php / javascript + filestructure
• Mediawiki (modified?)
  • Amusewiki: http://amusewiki.org/special/index
• Calibre

• Pi

library as physical object

• how can we put the PI into space?
• with display / connected to coffee machine?
• physical presence also as a reminder -> maintenance

ideas

• make pdfs available to everyone in local network
• make structure available to www (tunnel)
• distributed library (multiple persons have parts of the library)

PDF Reader / Editor in Web

• Possibilites to edit and view Pdfs in browser
• access PDFs in terms of search / preview
• View / Edit without »downloading«
• https://web.hypothes.is/ for web annotation

Decisions

Using a pi with webinterface Catalog is available online, while files are stored offline and only accessible via the local network. python dictonary -> use shelve python -> API with python
