Introduction
This is a project meaning to approach the data from Seattle Public Library in a new way. Instead of compare the data between books, this project shows single book's the activity. From 2006 to 2010, each time thiere is a transaction about one required book, the system draws a line between the check out date and the check in date. The darker side of the line represents the check out date and the birghter side represents the check in date. The weight of the line is related to the duration. The longer the duration is, the thicker the line should be.
