1patronSearches for an audio book

Audio books display in search results with:

  • 'Get' button if available for download
  • 'Reserve' button if not available for immediate download
  Patron borrows from catalog page
2patronclicks 'Get'
  • System checks out book
  • System displays:
    • 'Listen' button
    • Number of days left displays
    • If user clicks 'Get' from detail view, then 'Return Now' button appears in UI

(From a User perspective flow should be identical to borrowing ebooks.)

  

If wifi drops, show inactive/loading version of the listen button.

Need an alternate flow for the web app. so that it displays a message to go to SimplyE to listen. This would be the same downloading most ebooks. Need a design.
