Scrolling through heaps of stuff just trying to get a real feel for library culture, so I know what the experienced book worm types might want. From market research experience I already know that people don't actually know what they want, so it's better to understand their outlook than actually take their suggestions. This link I'm posting is classic self-expression at it's finest, giving 17 points that could guide our approach to touch points.
Point number 8 ("When a book you love gets a harsh review") made me think of this situation in a study library scenario- wouldn't it be handy of there was some public forum where students could review and recommend books for other people studying the same paper as them?
Seems obvious now I think of it...
