[Koha] Idea for development - library floor plan on OPAC

Hi all

I would like to imagine a feature for Koha's OPAC, where the customer 
can click on a 'Where is it?" button for any title that is available on 
shelf, and be presented with a library plan showing the section where 
the item should be.
For instance, if the person looked up Pride & Prejudice, and the library 
has a copy in their Classics section, on the lower floor at the end of 
the Fiction shelving, the plan would show the shelving layout with the 
appropriate shelf area highlighted.

This would of course require some work from each library to create the 
shelf layout, and then link it to categories or call number ranges in Koha.

Just an idea, would this be hard to do, and is there interest out there?

Agnes
