Librisys
A university library still ran its catalog on a spreadsheet the front desk printed every morning. Students queued at the counter just to find out if a book was even on the shelf, and staff re-typed the same list by hand every time a title moved.
Now every student checks availability from their phone before they've left the dorm, and shelf updates from the librarian's tablet sync to every device on campus within seconds. The front-desk queue is gone — most students never see it.
