Ten copies needed Monday?
Book clubs scramble ten copies weekly. Libraries lend singly.
1. The problem
Reading groups need ten copies of picks with weeks to go. Libraries lend singly with holds. Members buy duplicates wastefully. Discussions start unread. The hardest part is bundled availability. A title might waitlist months. That uncertainty makes it hard to read together.
“Ten copies needed with weeks to go. I need bundled kits with guides.”
2. What exists
Library kits, bulk buys and holds supply clubs, while groups scramble. Kits exist patchily. A hold might delay months. There is little help with kit discovery plus reservation flows for clubs.
3. The solution
The solution could be a bundle-finder for reading groups. It could locate kits with copies plus guides. It could reserve ahead simply. Discussion prompts could attach automatically. The goal would be clubs reading together.
