			* Don't subtract them from the lists though, we can make a system for checking them off

			''' Initiative 3: Flag books for the stacks '''
			* We don't plan to get rid of books, but we do plan to take them off the shelves
			* Normal libraries have 'stacks' but we have boxes. We can call our boxes 'the stacks'
			* This needs accompanied with a flagging system in library-org so we know a book is in the 'stacks'
			* Another thought: we should also label the boxes and say which box each book is in, inside library-org

			''' Initiative 4: Improve library-org '''
			* library-org is a flask app
			* Current capabilities: receive new books, search books.
			* Manual add form, but first we need to get our data model stable.
			* Connect a fallback API. OpenLibrary only has about 80% coverage, so far.
			* Report books not in Open Library, so they can get better.
