GPS and Library Books

A lot of thought has been going into the idea of having GPS technology put into libraries, specifically books. I think there is a big benefit of this technology, though I do not know the cost analysis and if it is actually worth the price. If the price was right then I think this would be a great investment for libraries to have. The ability to help people locate books on their own would be great and give librarians time to do other things, also if a book is lost then there is the potential to figure out where it is. Though, if a book is stolen or missing, what would be proper protocol for finding it anyways unless it was on library premises. This technology can also lead to having programming in libraries that use the gps service, which might have some interesting results. Overall, I would have to be in support of this type of research and potential, with ebooks becoming popular, this is a good way to relate both old technologies (books, etc) and new technologies (smart phones, etc).
