A library version of a shelf delivery system, which can be anything
from a fancy robot-driven storage and retrieval system, to the
librarian hitting "print" and wander over to section H to get the
thing. And anything in between. These are just silly examples of where
librarians miss out on perfectly good systems because they were
looking for the word "stacks" somewhere in the systems description.
