TOECA is an iPhone app created by James Nulick that allows users to scan book barcodes to check if the title is available at their local library or request that the library acquire it. The app name stands for "The Orange Eats Creeps", a novel by Grace Krilanovich that the author saw but could not afford to purchase. By scanning the barcode, TOECA checks the local library's catalog and can place holds on available books or suggest titles for the library to purchase to expand its collection. The goal is to help keep public libraries current and accessible to patrons.
