On October 7 I posted the following comment to Gary's Current Awareness post.
"I really like the robot/ABDS system. I dont think it takes away at all from the browsing-actual-shelves experience, as there is a feature built into the catalogue just for that (the 'browse shelf' feature under every title searched. All new and popular books will still be physically on the shelf for us to browse. It will just be the back catalogue that uses the ABDS system. I think the robot will benefit library users and librarians alike. If there was a blackout - well, that would pose some problems. But I think the pluses far outweigh any minuses.
