Hi John,
 
At my former library, audiobook playaways were a huge hit, so I think these launchpads will do just as well. One of our libraries just got a bunch and purchased bumper cases for the devices too. Our state consortium created new circ modifiers last year for musical instruments and to encompass other items, we created “realia”.  
 
So our launchpads will circulate as “realia” for 1 week, 1 renewal, non-holdable (so it won’t travel through the courier or mail), shelved “Behind desk” and patrons sign a user agreement (in case of damage, etc).

I'm curious, what do you think of the new Playaway Launchpads?
 
What type should they circulate as?   3d object? Computer File or projected medium?
 
What circ modifier? Software: Gaming seems like a fit.
 
Currently we chose 3d Object and software: gaming, though that limits it to one checkout per card.
 
Thanks,
John
