Field notes
The interface labels keyboard controls for selecting and opening shelves, alongside wheel-to-zoom and drag-to-move gestures. Its 1952 social-sciences panel separates a representative-books list from a direct National Diet Library search for approximately 4,231 publications; the list itself is shown as containing zero books. Book-detail text also points readers toward Aozora Bunko and the National Diet Library digital collection.
